hey guys.. im building a box for 2 cerwin vega vpro 15d2's...

sub recommends 3 cuft per 15 (so 6 cuft for the 2). i decided to go with around 8 cuft total for more output..

box dimension are 62w, 18t, 18d (i think those dims are right, not at my computer now...)

port width is 8" tuned to 33hz (i think so.. lol.. i check my computer when i get home)

box will be in a 95 chevy 1500 ext cab. subs up, port up centered.

Question is...

Will the larger enclosure be ok for these woofers?? ive been told some subs like larger than recommended and some you shouldnt go over recommended..

thanks for the help..

I didn't look up the specs on the subs, but one thing I'd give some thought to would be over excursion with the larger box. As you increase box size, your cone excursion goes up to. I don't know if you would have any problems with the power he will be running or not, but its something to be aware of.

so do you recommend i tell him to put less than rated (900 rms) to each woofer or go with smaller box

I'd just tell him to use his brain with the volume knob. Those subs could fine totally fine on rated power in that box, or they might not. Once you go over the recommended size enclosure you just need to have a little caution, that's all.
