Sub box in '97 suburban


Recommended Posts

Ok , need a little help. Trying to design a sub enclosure for my '97 'burb. What I want is something that is not going to take up room. We use this for traveling, but we like our music too and we need bass. I'm just trying to decide on what size sub to go with that will give me good all around bass but still not take up room. I built a enclosure for my '05 crew cab GMC that is ported with a single 10" JL (I don't remember what frequency it's tuned too?) It has decent bass, but I would like to try to use a 12" in the 'burb to have that " all around " bass. Just looking for some ideas.

Going up a size will not affect the sound of the bass. The box will affect the sound. IMO if you want good sounding bass get sundown x10's in a pores box on about 1.2k for each sub. They sound amasing.

Ehh, if you're only looking to fill in that bass gap, then I'd get SQ's HDS212's in a nice 3 cuft ported box. Tune to about ~37hz for daily, if you love low bass then tune to ~32hz

Sub up, port towards hatch, and about 60 square inches of port or ~40 if you're using areo ports. (IE: 2x 6" areos) You could slide by with two 4" areos if you wanted though.

Oh, and use torres' box calc on here to just have some fun with measurements. http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/38791-torres-box-tuning-calculator-updated-818/
