Aeromix Posted April 26, 2012 Report Posted April 26, 2012 I got a mini Rockford Fosgate P2D2-8 in a Bazooka Marine tube. (It's for a project, not a car setup incase your wondering the odd setup), but any ideas how to get rid of this little air sound, or any recommendations of what I should use to dampen the sub, like some sort of insulator around the rim of the sub? Just screwing it in doesn't cut it. I am using a mini RF PBR300X1 to power it, the sub sounds great in other boxes. (Also if you know any TINY good boxes, let me know!)
certifiednut Posted April 26, 2012 Report Posted April 26, 2012 i like to use gray closed cell foam used for sealing windows or doors. you can buy a roll of it at any hardware store for under 5$ these orphans aren't going to feast on themselves
skittlesRgood Posted April 26, 2012 Report Posted April 26, 2012 depends on where the leak is. if its leaking from the sub mounting then ya, some weather stripping will do it. if its from another spot, some silicone will do it. If I answered you in a well mannered, informative way, you asked a good question or had a good attitude. If I was an asshole, you asked a stupid question or you had a fucktard attitude... or I was in a bad mood.

Aeromix Posted April 26, 2012 Author Report Posted April 26, 2012 Alright, I'll try the weather strip, someone also suggested since Bazooka boxes are kinda cheap, to lines the edges with Silicon sealent, so I think i'll try that aswell, thanks for the responses!
Cardboardcat15 Posted April 26, 2012 Report Posted April 26, 2012 Weather stripping, or some felt might do the trick. Hell, if you can find a rubber gasket from another 8 that would probably work too. IF it's leaking at the sub, might also be the box. May wanna run a bead of silicon on all the edges.
