Pair of RFosgate T1 12's going into my scion xb, need help with a box build!

[Manuel Morales]

Alright guys, im new to this forum, bought an DD m2b from a guy that said was a member on here so I thought id check it out. Well here I am and figured I could get help here...

I need and want any input on your behalf as far as a box build thats going into my scion xb.

Heres what im looking for, 1) looking to tune the box high 40s and 50s so im guessing in the mid area, the reason for that is I mainly listen to spanish genre music (ie. Reggeaton) and notice that they do tend to record songs in higher hertz notes not much of deep bass.

2) since I just bought the dd m2b which is rated at 2400 rms at 1 ohm at 14.4 volts, im going to have way more power needed to push these rockford fosgates T1D412. So I figured I keep gain low and set it with an oscilloscope to prevent clipping or anything of that nature, hense giving my subs clean power.

(Going to wire both my subs to 1 ohm load to amp)

The space I have available in my hatch is as follows:

38 inches in length (left to right) x 16.5 inches wide (back of seat to front of hatch) x 13.5 inches height (floor board to top)

Now that you have that information, I would like input as far as woofer placement (top of box or facing rear towards hatch) port position (facing up, towards hatch or coming out the side of the box)

If any of you could draw me up a box or give me the cut sheets, that would be extremly awesome and greatly appreciated.

Ill keep coming back to check up on this topic.

Thank for your time,

Manny

I wouldnt tune that high youll end up with a very narrow bandwidth. I would tune no higher tha 40 hz. Just keep in mind if you have that much power on hand youll want to be real careful dipping below your tuning. Also.aim for a box on the smaller side. Should help with your powwr handling and the lack of space in the toaster

Cool, i appriciate your input. Im new to these whole box build and still figuring this out. So your saying under 40, maybe 36-38? And as far as box size the given space i gave was a reference of space i have to work with, so should i make it a little smaller? I dont have access to one of those box build calculator and probably wouldnt get how to use it if i did have access, unless someone showed me how...
