DJ JDub Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 I just picked up four TS5512-44 by MTX. I will be powering these by two MTX amps which I still need to get, but I need help with the box design. My max dimensions can be 28x38x21. Top of the box is where the subs and the port will be located. Please let me know if you can help or if you can recommend a box building software that I could use. Thanks.

MrBigs63' Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Software wise you can download WinIsd Pro to model tone curves. It is free but it just basically gives you a general baseline since it doesn't put cabin gain into consideration. It is what I use and has worked well for me for the past year. If you want to pay for some there are more programs out there like bassbox pro. I would personally recommend to you since you seem to be a novice to get on the manufactures website for the subs and copy the parameters they give you such as the recommended enclosure volume and mounting depth. Then go to the12volt.com and use their box calculators. Put you max dimensions in and it will give you the gross volume available for your application. Then just play with that calculator and the port calculator in order to get the proper tuning and size you will need. Most likely you will have to tweak your dimensions and everything, so don't think the max dimensions have to be the final dimensions. I just calculated your internal volume to be ~10.9 cubic feet, so you have a lot of room to play with. Sorry I wish I could hit you up with a design, but sadly I don't use the 3D modeling software, and once I get my base design I just figure a lot of stuff out as I go. I am not good at making a design on paper. At least not good enough for anyone else to follow anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritch40 Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 IF he plans to use 1 amp per sub it will need to be a 2 chambered box. What kind of vehicle will this be going into?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aculous Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 Also you can use any of these when you get the T/S parameters to rough out a box http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/190625-enclosure-calculators-and-tutorials/ Also this has nothing to do with box design really but...are you running 2 subs per amp? or are you daisy chaining the two amps together?
