ThreehundredC Posted May 13, 2013 Report Posted May 13, 2013 edit:Now looking to build a box for 4 12s in a Chrysler 300c see latest post __ So a guy heard my box i just built and even tho its mostly the sub and amp and box all in one that makes it good it sold him on wanting me to make him one he has 2 12 audiobahn idk what kind the basic black ones that say audiobahn with the slash under it in purple they are in a broken sealed box right now wanting to go center shared port what size do these need haven't seen these subs in 10 years
alexd619 Posted May 13, 2013 Report Posted May 13, 2013 Depends on how much air space they need and can displace i would go to audiobahns website and look up the the sub specs. they tend to give box recomendations if you download a pdf manual Build log http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/166486-alexs-02-intrepid-budget-build/ 2 12" SKAR Audio VVXv2 d4 @ 1ohm vvme qa-d1500 Pioneer Head unit deh-8400bh 2 Kenwood KFC-1693PS 3-Way 6.5" 2 stock sail speakers/tweeters (Infinity premium stock) Polk Audio DB351 3.5" (upgraded from a factory 2.75" speaker or something weird like that dremeled to fit) 2 Sony Xplod XS-R6944 6" x 9" 4-Way's
Sanitarium Posted May 13, 2013 Report Posted May 13, 2013 just blindly on 2 older 12" subs, i'd go for 2.5 cubes net (small side) with 30 to 36 square inches of port total tuned in the low 30's.
ThreehundredC Posted May 13, 2013 Author Report Posted May 13, 2013 yea i didnt measure it yet but the box he had was facing forward and split open on one side but it was very shallow and id say 28-30 inches wide has some room to go a bit wider and just a little deeper on the ported should be fine maybe a 3inch opening port? 1.5 each side
loudNlow87 Posted May 13, 2013 Report Posted May 13, 2013 Can't really go wrong with what he suggested above. 2.5-3.5 cubes tuned somewhere 30-35Hz range with the port to accomodate. 1.5 each side though? I thought you were wanting a shared center port? Or are you talking about where the port splits in the back?

ThreehundredC Posted May 13, 2013 Author Report Posted May 13, 2013 yea i want it to come across the back then meet in the middle where ill build the triangle peice to send em down the shared section
Joe X Posted May 14, 2013 Report Posted May 14, 2013 Infos on many older subs are still available, if you have the model number I guess something can be done, anyways if they are very old it's risky to push them a lot, I guess it's better to get some current inexpensive subs like Sundown Es and go from there.
ThreehundredC Posted May 14, 2013 Author Report Posted May 14, 2013 i dont really even knnow the guy its a friend of a friend who just got these subs he couldnt even name from the opawn shop and it had a broken box while i was showing my friend the box i built this week he called his friend over to look too so he offered a good price i couldnt pass up
Joe X Posted May 14, 2013 Report Posted May 14, 2013 Here's 4 basic Audiobahn subs (check product history) the oldest should probably be a 2001-2002 model: http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_33657_Audiobahn-AW1251J.html
