weight/stress of inverted subs on baffle


SICKSPD

Recommended Posts

Im mounting two sa-8v2 subs inverted on my box which is only a single baffle .75" thick mdf wood. The face is 31" x 12" but I'm concerned that the weight of the woofers might cause problems and eventually might destroy the box. Do y'all think additional support such as something to put under the magnet might be necessary or could it work fine without additional support?

doesn't make a difference if it is inverted or not. still the same amount of weight on the same part of the box.

put a something in your hand palm up hand open that weighs about 1lb.

now palm down hand open put the same thing on top of your hand.

same amount of weight no matter how you hold it. just like an inverted sub, no matter how the baffle holds it its still holding the same weight.

I would at least do a small brace between the subs if possible to prevent box flex imo.

singer alt, tons of wiring, smd vm-1, 80prs, back seat delete, still in the works, aiming for a 145-147 with the ability to play 25hz up to 50hz.
