New guy in need of some help


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have a 2013 BMW 650xi COUPE that I am installing two 10W7AE-3 from JL in with two HD750-1 amps to. However the specs from JL for a ported enclosure is listed below. I am trying to build two boxes that fit into an area side by side with ports facing the rear where the open are of my rear arm rest is located. So the room I have to work with is 34wx16hx22-24D (22 preferred but can work 24). I am unsure how to re-design it with the ports facing backwards. I can figure out how to readjust the measurements but I am unable to access any subwoofer calculators at work. (I am on a military base so cannot access much lol) Could someone with a a few minutes to spare help me out with this so I can send measurements to my CNC guy to start cutting all the items out?? Front and back will be 1in MDF the rest will be .75in MDF. DADO jointed, interior seams sealed and everything glued and screwed together. I have a box I made from the JL AUDIO specs and love the sound and frequency it pushes out. I listen to KORN, SLIPKNOT, DISTURBED, as well as some HIP HOP, RAP and Classic ROCK so I love the Frequency and response of the one box I built for one JL 10W7AE-3sub. However I can not fit two side by side inside the area.

I am also adding a FIX-82, TWK-88,  HD750-1 per subwoofer, an HD600x4  amp for a set of ZR 650C-Si's for the front and a set of C5-653's for the rear. Going to push more power to the ZR's versus the C5's.

 

Any help is greatly appreciated. Or any advice as well.

You can just put both subs in one box with one port, may save you some room. I am unsure of what exactly it is you want so i'm going to assume subs forward port back? I can get you a 3D model sometime today using the JL specs.

Yes I want the subs to face forward and ports opposite facing the back side. I cannot build them both into one box if I do the box does not go into the trunk without a torch lol. So I will have to build them in individual enclosures and drop them in one at a time.

 

Sorry for any confusion.

Okay, I can try to put something together. 2 separate boxes using factory specs. Subs front, port back. I'll see what I can do.

What do you mean sketchup?? Unsure what that means.

 

UPDATE.... I just googled it, I will have to download it when I get home.
