elflako17 Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 Trunk Dimentions Here is a 3D of what it would basically look like. I don't have any fear of this fitting in and out of the trunk either: Little port action: Mock up: Port close up: Hate doing this part without an extra set of hands: Fuck you baffle, you're getting holes(crazy German routers, they're very angry) Baffle mocked up to see what a real box is supposed to look like: Last pic of the day: Sides of the box: Port(just for you Alaskan came out nice too) 2010 Mazda 3 *Rebuild Time* Subs - (2) AA Mayhems 12's Sub amp - (1) Populus Audio TPA 6500 Headunit - Pioneer App Radio 2 Batteries - XS Power (1) D3100 up front | 6 XP950 rear Wire - Sky High 1/0 Gauge wires and RCA's and steve's VM1 Alternator - Singer 260 Externally Regulated Front Stage: (2) PRV Audio 10W650A (4) PRV Audio 8MR500-PhP-4 (4) DS Bullet Tweets | (2) 6.5 Components (Rear doors) Mids & high Amp : (2) Populus Audio 100.4 Processor: Rockford 3sixty.3 The Build Log : http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/175922-2010-mazda-3-2-aa-mayhems-12-pg14-new-video/page-11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Hammer Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 Looks good. nice job clean seams...dig the slight roundover on sub cutout and the roundover on the port.. Always gives a box a softer look. You painting or coating it? did you use glue or anything or just screws I don't see any glue drips from the joints so I'm just wondering? it looks like there is somehting smearing along the seams but I mean actual bond like wood glue or liquid nails in the joint. Not hating just wondering. Looks awesome though. Did you use a tablesaw cus the cuts look really great if you didn't.

321slapinbass Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 looks great but its pretty small. only 2.75 ft^3 which is good for 10's but for 12's i would have done atleast 3.5 ft^3. also the port area is low, you have 12.27 in^2 of port per cube. i like 14 - 16 ft^3 per cube. but it does look really well built! 2000 Dodge Durango Subs - (2) SKAR VVX 15 D2's Box - 7.2 ft^3 @ 33hz, 120 in of port Sub amp - Digital Designs M2 @ .5 ohm Mids + Highs - PRV Audio Mids + Highs amp - Hifonics 2000.4 Headunit - Alpine CDE-100 Equalizer - Clarion EQS746 Batteries - Mopar group 27 + (2) C&D 52ah Wiring - 1/0 BIG 3, (2) runs 1/0 Alternator - Singer 250A 147.79 dB @ 35hz - burp - sealed on dash 147.47 dB @ 35hz - music - sealed on dash YOUTUBE: http://www.youtube.com/user/321slapinBass/videos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't built specifically for Skars. The tuning will work perfectly and it will allow great cone control with the power he will be pushing. He didnt have a lot of room to play with in the car so I left him some depth. The car is a Mazda 3 and we will see how this box performs first before we try something else. I'm pleased with how well it's turned out and I think the subs will do work in the box. The lower you tune, the less port area per foot you need as well. Aside from internal airspace(which we will compensate for will a lot of power) the box is pretty damn perfect. Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.

CleanSierra Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 Oh, I never mentioned, the box was built ORIGINALLY for a couple of Boss 12s. I'm glad the boy came to his senses. The box was assembled using Titebond II and I also put a good bead of clear caulk on seams. I've used liquid nails in the past and its STRONG as hell but a pain to work with. Especially if sanding has to be done. A circular saw with jig was used to make cuts as someone WAS curious Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.

CleanSierra Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 The only potential downside I can foresee is a peakier response curve. More air would have allowed a flatter response but these subs are beasts and low end monsters so they should do JUST fine Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.
