Lvlpharaoh Posted December 7, 2019 Report Share Posted December 7, 2019 Hey everybody I'm trying to find out if my 2000 chevy malibu could fit a 2 15in ported/vented box and if so is there any vendors that build them? (i'm nervous on building a box due to lack of tools and knowledge) so far I have 2 12in subs in a box that measures out to 35W x18Lx 15h I still have alteast 1 or 2 inches of width space.

john253a Posted December 7, 2019 Report Share Posted December 7, 2019 Why not get 2 high end 12 as long as you can power them eg 3-4K rms In that space your only 1x15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your max box size shows 5.51 cubes gross... not gonna fit 2 15s and port. Probably barely fit 1 15 after all displacements. Hell you barely have even enough for 2 12s with proper port area 18 Sierra 6.2 Z71 : 3 F8L's, DD M2a @.67, 1.95@33 05 TL build log SOLD 04 YukonXL : jvc kw-v51bt , RE 6.5c, 4 jbl gt5 12s, Memphis pr1000.1 5.5 cu.ft. sealed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorNut Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 your woofers are already 2" from the trunk? That's really close. Realistically, 15's and port if both facing the same way should be at the very least, 6" from any sort of wall, 7-8" is even better. Going with 6" though, it leaves you 4.8 cu ft (37x16x14) to work with. After displacement for port, woofers, wood thickness etc you'll tend to lose 35-45% of your usable space. If you can manage it with only losing 35% you're left with 3.12 cu ft, and that's assuming you can use every last inch and still be able to load it in the trunk. Realistically, you'll probably be slightly under 3 cu ft usable if that helps your decision. If you can get 3 cu ft usable, you might be able to run a SA 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CstrokerV Posted December 22, 2019 Report Share Posted December 22, 2019 So it looks like you can go higher and wider.. but depends on your trunk opening also my build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/142505-small-build-log-4-dc-lvl3-10s-tl-update-link-to-rebuild/ http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/154258-rebuild-6-lvl3-12s-update-small-video-nothing-spectacular/ new build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/188181-03-trailblazer-slow-build-8-dc-lvl3-12-m1-motor-m2-parts/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
