Bump4life Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 soulda asked me since you bought them from me ahha. dude just make the enclosure as big as you can that looks good. .5 inch thick should be fine but .75 inch never hurts. just what ever you can fit. weight may be an issue? not sure but just as big as posssible. i had another set (not yours) in my home audio system and i had them in 1.6 cubes net boxes and they sounded great.

TRTC360 Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 tbh for door pods 3/4 or 1/2 mdf is too thick and will just be extra weight on the door, i'd use 1/4mdf if I were you.

TRTC360 Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 1/4 should work. and yea 1.6 net each. sealed box not trying to sound like a dick but that's a huge box to try to fit inside a door, IMO he should cut the door to make the speaker fit then cut an mdf mounting ring and really focus on sound deadening the door properly.

Bump4life Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 Sorry for not being clear!! if it were me i would not do 1.6 net haha. you wont fit it looking good most likely. i would stay under 1 cube. prolly under .75 net ahha im just saying that i had them in 1.6 net and they worked fine and sounded great with a great response!!

skyhighcaraudio Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 1/4" should do it man you can mount subs in 1/2 if you need to for space so those 11 pound speakers or whatever they are will be perfectly fine in some 1/4" for a box size i would say make it as big as possible because at the end of the day we are talking about in a door so its not going to be a huge box. mike hit me up if you need help or anything like that i have a bit of experience with them lol Contact us for the best quality cables and accessories with the fastest shipping in the industry EMAIL: [email protected]<script data-cfhash='f9e31' type="text/javascript"> /* */</script> LIKE US ON FB: https://www.facebook.com/SkyHighCarAudio ADD ME ON FB: https://www.facebook.com/jon.rabe.1 MONSTER SKY HIGH/DC GMC: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/127057-sky-high-monster-gmc-walk-through-12-lvl-5-15s-6-9ks-trim-panels-and-wiring-p-90/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyhighcaraudio Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 as a side note i wouldnt suggest using mdf in your doors its just too heavy. find something stronger and lighter like birch if it comes that thin (i used 1/2 for my doors) itll just save you some unneeded weight in there.
