1998 Ford Explorer SA-15 Enclosure Design


Recommended Posts

Bought an SA-15 for my Ford Explorer. I've been looking around the internet and no one really has an enclosure design for just one SA-15. I'm going to be pushing about 1k and want it to be tuned at 32 hz for rap. Can anyone help with an enclosure design because I got turned down by RAM designs (due to lack of time he has) and I really don't want to have to pay $60 for a design by Pete. Thanks.

I'd do it 3.2 cubes net 12" of port tuned to 35hz

Idk, my friend has a sa 12 at 12" port per foot and like 5-6hz under tuning the sub moves a lot but it loses its bass sound.... just kinda sounds like motor noise. But that might not have to do with the port specs, idk

I have built several enclosures for Sundown subs but never the sa15s. I have mostly done Nightshades and usually go with 3 cubes after displacement with about 8.5 sqin of port per cuft. For the sa I would do 2.5 cubes with 2 4" aeroports tuned to 35-37 hz. This will give you 10 sqin per cuft. Also the reason for tuning higher will keep the sub safe. I have broken the triple joint on the sa12s by tuning low. The sub is not made to move to to the extent that 32hz demands with a lot of power. This will save you some trouble in the long run.
