building a fiberglass enclosure for 3 10" p2's

[b-dubs89]

looking to build a fiber glass enclosure for 3 10" p2 subs and i am in the design phase of this project and the dilemma i face is deciding the volume of my enclosure . i plan to build a sealed enclosure in a way that would put all 3 subs in a common air space so i doubt if the recommended volume for this sub in this configuration would be correct and i am not too sure what my target air space for 3 subs all in the same air space would be or how to guess . any input on this would be appreciated .

Take the recommended air space of each woofer and multiply that by 3.

Is there any reason why they are sharing the same airspace? I would think the box would be much stronger with dividers. It would probably sound better also.

i agree about dividers adding strength , but i guess i'm just thinking about designing my box right now and the box i have dreamed up would have a fiberglass baffle or maybe just make the whole thing out glass , not sure yet , triangular shaped or resemble a pyramid with curves and contours which will mean some rather odd shapes , and also i foresee dividers making the overall size of my box larger to keep the right airspace .

You could just brace the thing with some wooden dowels for strength if you need it.

What vehicle is this going into? Where in the vehicle is it going? Give us a pic of the car/truck that this box is to be built for. Do you have the vehicle yet?

it's going into a 98 chevy venture van that i just picked up 2 days ago , i have been thinking about doing this box for 3 10" p2s on 1 side in the back and on the other side maybe my 15" t1 sub and hopefully have room in the middle for groceries or a stroller being a family man with 2 small children
