NEED HELP WITH OBSIDIAN 15D2 PORTED BOX FOR JEEP


Recommended Posts

I don't think I'll have any issues with port noise. If I do, I'll just cut out the port, patch the box, and go with 3 6 in. Aero's. I just don't want too much port area and unload, or not be musical enough.

lol i think you will. the minimum "recommended" is 12. you have 10.8. too much port area is like 18sqin per cube for a slot port LOL. and even then you have people doing 20-22 for their subs

are you sure its a cherokee and not a grand cherokee. if those measures are correct and its a cherokee you must not have the spare tire in or anything. you should have enough room to use the 15's how much power do you wanna run

The only way to delete your SMD account is for you crawl to steve meades door step on your knees and pleade for his forgiveness and acceptance to be released...He will either grant your wishes.....or choke you with a large piece of 0 gauge and electrocute you by hooking up a solid gold DC 12k at 0.000001 ohm and 10000 volts to your eye sockets and blow your head apart

You guys act like you have never clogged a toilet and ran around the bathroom frantically hoping it don't overflow.

But than, if I build the box to minimum Obsidian recommendations, my port area is great

I think it just looks small because I built the box to maximum recommended size. We're not talking about 3000 Watt subwoofers, or burp machines here...

The first box I posted should work. Maybe a little more port area I guess. Download Torres Box calculator and fool around with it. Obsidian recommends 2.5-3.75cu.ft. (net) so 5-7.5cuft. Net for the pair. They recommend somewhere between a 4"-6" aeroport per 15, but everyone here seems to think that's not enough port area. Subs up, port rear (make sure there's at least 6" between the port exit and the hatch). Maybe build it on the big side if you're only putting 1000rms to the pair. And you should be good! :)

Ok so here is a suggestion within your dims sub up/port back, tuning as requested:

Enclosure Specifications:

Fb = 30 Hz

Vb = 7.4 ft^3

External Height = 20 in

External Width = 40 in

External Depth = 26 in

Port Width = 5 1/2 in

Cut Sheet List:

* All Dimensions in Inches.

* Wood Thickness is 3/4 for all Parts.

External Enclosure Parts:

2 x Top & Bottom (3 parts) = 40 x 26

Left & Right Sides = 24 1/2 x 17 3/4

2x Front = 17 1/4 x 17 3/4

Back = 40 x 17 3/4

Shared Port Internal Assembly Parts:

2 x Front to Back = 21 3/4 x 17 3/4

Net volume and port area are within limits. Let me know any questions.
