Ported Box 4 Re Mt 18's (my Current Box) Updates, More Pics 4-21-07


Recommended Posts

do u think 10 yrds and 4 gallons would be enough to do a 18ft3 enclosure?

depends on the mat you use really.  I would brace it and then glass it on the inside.  Whatever you get will be a benefit so just do what you can. 

yea I was gonna use 2x2s for bracing and do 2 layers of dat mat and seal the corners like u did. I'll probably just use a couple of cans of dynospray on and a light sanding on the inside. I hear spraying the inside with dynospray helps. What is the purpose of sanding the edges? Does it cut down on turbulance noise or something?

Steve, Do u sand the edges on the ports to cut down on turbulance noise in the port or is it just to make the box look better? Oh yea and If I had 4 subs would it make any difference if I chambered them of like 2 in each chamber and 2 ports. If not I'll just make 1 big box with 1 big port.

save urself the trouble and make one big one. also, the routered edge cuts down on port noise and makes it easier for the air to get out

:^Cool, I appreciate that Steve and Disdatchevy. I always wondered why u did that with the ports. Hey steve do ur amps get hot under ur box? I wanted 2-MM4000.1Ds or if I come into some money by spring I'll get 4-MM4000.1Ds to fit under mine. Its gonna be about the same size box as urs but Imma be using 15" BTLs though. The amps are about 2.5" thick and I was gonna give em about 1" b/w the amp and the bottom of the box so it wont be right up on the amp, would that be ok?
