melvinduran21 Posted December 19, 2014 Report Posted December 19, 2014 I have an 04 cadillac seville, fair sized trunk space. Looking to get a custom box made for 2 HDS312s, but not sure what to make the specs. How should I tune the box? I've heard 32 hertz because I listen to mostly rap, but looking for more opinions! Pics of the specs for boxes would be appreciated! Thanks guys
brent379 Posted December 19, 2014 Report Posted December 19, 2014 how much power are you going to push to them? box designers are going to need that before they can help you out. also need to post the max dimensions, length width and height, to be able to get a design. and maybe try to explain what your goal with the system is, are you wanting something that is just loud and low and space isnt an issue for you, or can you only give up an x amount of space.
melvinduran21 Posted December 21, 2014 Author Report Posted December 21, 2014 I'm going to have an SQ q1-2200D on them, my old box was 35" x 19 3/4" x 16 3/4" with an 8" port and was tuned to 32 htz. I really just want my subs to get low and louder than they were in that box. And I'd like something a little smaller in size because the old box barely fit into my trunk, it was a hassle to get out. Please help?

brent379 Posted January 8, 2015 Report Posted January 8, 2015 i personally do not have experience with soundqubed woofers. ive just read that they like bigger boxes and not tuned to low. your old box was approx. 5.4 cubes gross before any displacements, so if you shrink that you might lose some low end depending how much you shrink it.
reedal Posted January 8, 2015 Report Posted January 8, 2015 Yep. If you want lower and louder than your current enclosure, it's gonna need to be bigger. Around 5 cubic ft net after displacements. I'm in the process of designing my new one for two of those now. So if you want to use less space in your trunk, I don't think these subs are for you SMD Tool Map https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/193176-smd-tool-map-new-november-2014/ Build log https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/197217-reeds-03-tahoe-hat-sqaq-singer-xs-shca-cockbox-80prs/?page=32
