BannisterEc Posted March 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 I did contact the locals and they suggest small sized prefab sized boxes that fit in the boot area of many hatchbacks and seem pretty universal. I bought this type of vehicle to utilize the space for sound, obviously when I can afford it next year but in the meantime these are subs I have to use. They collective conseses amongst them is that the specsheet is incorrect and to big, one fellow suggested 200liters at 38hz. The manufacturer recommended 920 x 380 deep x 440 wide 2 x 3 inch port 280mm long(180mm Wood thickness.). This doesn't seem right and abit small. I want the same box Joe designed earlier. Just abit scared, but Joe knows his stuff so I'm going to build his box. No one in Sa has this style box, and it looks amazing on paper even on youtube lol. Thanks guys for the help, appreciate chatting to experts that take the time to listen, here the guys don't like to chat beacause they are abit competitive. Will hopefully started building this coming Sunday. Will upload pics soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cj Kumz Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 Just go for it. I always believe experience is the best way to know what box works best. I normally build two to three boxes before getting it right, especially with subs I have never dealt with. All the best with your build. Let us know how it goes Vw Polo Pioneer Deh-6050UB Sundown Saz-3500d DD Audio 9500 15'' 5.5 cubic feet box with 10 inch port @ 38hz I live to hear the Bass drop!!!

Joe X Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 Ok OP I am trying to make sense of your feedback so I went back to the table you provided an checked the box listed for the 1502W which is 65x46x44.5 with a round port 12 diameter x25 length, using a driver displacement of 0.17 cubic feet it comes to a net volume of little under 100 L, it is a small difference but if it makes you feel better about what you are building I am submitting a revised box which is 200 L net and a with a 32Hz tuning, bear in mind that your amp is way to powerful for the subs so you will need to make sure you give only around rated power to them or you may actually run into problems: Notes: power: to sub(s) rated, amp subsonic filter to 28Hz, minimum port clearance 14 cm, figure is just an assembly guide.

BannisterEc Posted March 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 Abit rough at the moment but its nailed and glued together for now due to time constraints, going to reinforce with screws and 2-3lliters of resin. Is resin a good idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
