tlh_360 Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 (edited) Ok so like the title says this is fo a Z v.3 15. This will be my first box disigned and to be built myself. Please dont be harsh lol. However any help/adjustments would be greatly appreciated. If this box is a toatl bust my max dimensions are 32" w x 18" t x 16" d if you could suggest anything better. Thanks in advanced. SPECS: BOX: Again any help is greatly appreciated. EDIT: It will also be ran off a brz.1700 and an upgrade to a crescendo bc2000 when more funds come in. It's all going into a dodge charger.....If that helps. Edited June 25, 2012 by tlh_360 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Lam Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 looks good, that's a great calculator. wish i had that when i did my first box. what are you tuning it to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlh_360 Posted June 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 It says 35.04hz 2.99ft^3 and 16.56in^2 of port area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john253a Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 You'll need to double up the front so tick baffle in Torres You'll need bracing as well so that will be around 0.02-0.03cuft (3/4 or 1" round bar) Put a 45's in the the port and opposed side to port(not needed on front as double baffled but you can still put) Other that port is all good at 16-17sq" per ft port And power that with 15-1800rms and you'll be fine, if you want 2k+ drop the net to 2.5net 19sq" per ft port Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john253a Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 Also tune it to 33-34 and you'll be a bit happier unless you chasing a bit more spl then 36-37hz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlh_360 Posted June 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 Alright I'll mock it up when I get home later today. Should I put a round brace between the rear port wall and the back wall of the box? I think in just gunna build the 2.5 box now that way I don't have to build two boxes. Would the 2.5ft^3 with 19sq" of port be alright with only 1700 rms? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think that brace is necessary, but if you really want to do some bracing. a bit larger 45 on the port walls would do a good job without interfering the port airflow. .

tlh_360 Posted June 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 (edited) Ok it took some crunching lol but how is this. SPECS: BOX: What do you think. The only thing I can think of is only having 4" between end of port and the side wall. Will that be ok since its larger than the 3" port width? Also I dont know how to do 45's on sketchup but I figured there would be 3-4. 2, 45's along the back two corners(in port area), 1 right behind the sub, and maybe 1 on the front wall( right of the sub cut out) depending on what you guys think. EDIT: This box is 2.53 cubes, 34.40 hz, and 18.99 sq". It's kinda small to read. Edited June 26, 2012 by tlh_360 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlh_360 Posted June 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 Also the brace is 1" round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAM_Designs Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 Make the brace closer to the sub cutout, and do a vertical one as well to brace the top/bottom of the box. There are 1.25" dowels at Home Depot.
