pervitizm Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 Okay so I took some measurements today just to see how much space I have to work with. The idea is to keep my third row seats. That was the main reason why I brought a suburban instead of a tahoe. So far this is what I've came up with. *Note all measurements are external* Height: 23 3/8 inches or 28 1/2 inches if I go up to top of headrest Width: 49 inches Depth: 28 3/4 inches I went to 12volt.com to use their volume calculator and it came out to roughly 15 cft of internal volume space. I want to go ported with the 18's and I want to go both subs and ports facing up as apposed to subs up and ports to the rear. You guys think this is do-able with the measurements I've posted?

I am wondering the same shit. But the measurements I wrote down cause I would want it level with the rear side windows was 23"D x 49" W x 22" H Edited May 14, 2008 by p_mcnaught Quote Team Deadly Hertz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pervitizm Posted May 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 (edited) Okay so I have to admit this was my first time using Google's SketchUp software and I'm hooked. By far way easy to do a drawing with rather than AutoCad. Anyway this is what I've come up with using the measurement that Wagonized over on SoundSolutionsAudio gave me. I made an adjustment with the port though. I brought the port up to the top, extended it's width by 4 inches to 24inches and decreased the height to 10 inches. Let me know what you think? Will this work?

SteelCityGhost Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 I have a box designed exactly like this, and it's rather inefficient. I'm already in the process of doing something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etaks_crew Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 How much did you pay for your subs? I emailed rusty but he's prolly bussy finishing lvl 5's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is this design inefficient? Quote 2008 Chevy Impala (undercover cop style) Setup in the makings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelCityGhost Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 Why is this design inefficient? The airspace for both subs is in the middle, meaning that the air pressure from each sub is cancelling out when it gets to the port. You honestly would have a better, more efficient box setup with ports on opposites sides. That box design alone is probably costing you 5-8db easy.
