Extratrespl Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 the big box i finaly put in was with 2 sundown sa 12's and it was plenty big and fit jussstttt right actually i think the 95 trunk is a tad bit longer/bigger the dimension in the picture is the biggest you can go w/o building in the trunk!!! urghh it wont let me post the pick its in a rtf file format i just threw together but i can give you the max dimensions box width 31 box height 15.5 although id go to about 14.75 for clearence of the middle passenger thing so you can push the box in deeper box top 20 box bottom depth 20 and i used 3/4 inch wood and made the cuts with re audio box calculator and it came out nice also ask the lowes guy to cut the wood for you if he wont tell me not even for 15 bucks he will change his mind lol also the final tuning was 27 hz 32 after displacements and port was 3 inches long/wide Too Bass Or Not To Bass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbeljefe Posted July 4, 2013 Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 WinISD Beta recommends 2.1 cubes for the T-7104, which is what I assume you have. So... 4 cubes isn't too large for two, even without bracing. Those are older subs and they weren't designed to run in small enclosures like subs are today. I would caution you against running too much power on them though. In a sealed box, they might handle 375 each okay but I wouldn't drive them too hard or for too long and I certainly would turn OFF any and all bass enhancement/boost switches or dials on the head unit and the amp.

I'm hoping they'll last me at least long enough to save up for my type r 15. I was looking at this week. lol... those things are siiiiccckkkk! but yeah. I tend not to run it anyway with the bass boost and that unless the subs aren't doing shit at non boosted levels... like with this dual amp when I hooked up my new head unit... I turned everything off and am runing only half boost right now (6db). I'm surprised these subs are still together. they haven't disintegrated yet... the surroubds are beautiful.... spiders are impeccable... surface wise. you can't tell much but you can tell theyve been babied <img src=http://i1332.photobucket.com/albums/w610/beastly666bassboy/IMG_9611192581855_zps9b9b76be.jpg border=0 alt= height="75" width="800"> Growing old is necessary... growing up is an option!
