GueroZ28 Posted December 27, 2013 Report Posted December 27, 2013 I have a pair k012s4 db drive 500watts svc.. i had given specs from a similar sub because i couldnt find these.. so these subs need 1.10cuft of box volume each, a port diameter of 3inches and port length of 12inches tuned to 38hz My max dimensions are Width- 33inches Depth- 16inches maybe more Height- 15inches Going in a 03dodge neon Powered by an 850.1 db drive amp Looking for the dimensions i can use to get what the subs need thanks.. also im using 1/2mdf since these arent that strong Thanks
jarrius Posted December 27, 2013 Report Posted December 27, 2013 I would not use. 1/2 in mdf use 3/4 just because they are not powerful they still make pressure which can flex the board. 2012 Chevy sonic1xSQ HDC3 12 D2RF R1200d 140 square foot of Q-Mat(soon to be installed) 140.2Db sealed on the dash with TL 142 DB sealed on the dash with another meter (was dead on with the TL at a show i was at) 141 on music. strangeduck,on 02 Jan 2014 - 01:39 AM, said: when my car spins out i just put the car in neutral, turn in the direction i want to go and pucker my asshole
Guest Posted December 27, 2013 Report Posted December 27, 2013 thicker wood is better. I'd still brace a tad even with the woofers being 500w. you want to eliminate all box vibration possible
Joe X Posted December 27, 2013 Report Posted December 27, 2013 Here is a suggestion for 5/8" wood thickness, also tuned a little lower which would help a bit with lower tuned music (like rap) , it can all be changed if wanted: Assembly guide (generic dimensions):
GueroZ28 Posted December 27, 2013 Author Report Posted December 27, 2013 Here is a suggestion for 3/4" wood could use 5/8" wood thickness (with some changes) but I wouldn't use 1/2" as others pointed out, also tuned a little lower which would help a bit with lower tuned music (like rap) , it can all be changed if wanted: Assembly guide (generic dimensions): Looks a bit hard for me but im willing to try it.. if i use the 5/8 how would it change? For those 45s i would use the mdf also right?

How do u know all this?
Joe X Posted December 28, 2013 Report Posted December 28, 2013 I changed the above to 5/8" wood thickness so all changes made, yes, it's also MDF. Bear in mind that the amp is not rated RMS and you will be running at 2 ohm so probably won't be getting too much output from the subs.

I bought there at the store and fron what ive seen it isnt 3/4mdf more like 1/2mdf and if im correct its tuned at around 46hz when i entered it in the box calculator

And the cut, right side of the port is a 5/8" longer than the wall next to the subs?
