design ideas please


Recommended Posts

Hello I just bought a new family vehicle for the wife and kids to use.20220713_062918.thumb.jpg.b7553cfd0540e6c1447b72b5230ad00f.jpg

 

My wife says the stock system needs more bass for sure and she would love it if I could install some of my equipment that's been sitting in my basement forever! :) OK! 

Problem! I have no idea how to build a design and last time I got help 10years ago from Joe X.

2 E12s ported at 35hz on a T500bdcp and let me tell you what it worked so good!

Wondering if I can find assistance again!?

Here is what we are working with if anyone can help.

I'll start from the top we are going to be in a 2022 chevy equinox with max dimensions of 40"width and the depth and height can be whatever necessary. Screenshot_20220724-125832_Chrome.thumb.jpg.fed8d9d9ae524213f53ca2e6671576e9.jpg

 

Equipment available to be used will be- Rockford Fosgate balanced line driver line output converter.

Rockford Fosgate T500-1 bdcp with a (Switchable Fixed subsonic @ 28hz)

And I have 4 Skar Audio 10" D2 coils to use. I'm Thinking 1 or mayyyybe 2 of those would be best. 1 would match the amplifier better.

Looking for the most output possible focusing on an area between 28 and 45hz for rap and bass boosted stuff like that.

Maybe I could do something like this. I found this box builder online.

Or maybe this shape would be better being as there's not a huge dead air chamber and everything is more proportional to the port.

Not sure on tuning I would think 33 but skar recommends 38 and I feel like it would be playing below tuning all the time

An option if you want to retain cargo space, that passenger side has an open area towards the top if you wanted to side fire something similar to this. I prefer rear fire but a box with an angled back like the one I did here could leave more available room. This was for a single SA-10 and it was built on the smaller side, everybody has different goals. I didn't build it for myself.

Joe the previous enclosure was in an 2002 extended cab silverado subs up slot port along bottom to the side with no L shape. Huge box took up all the back seat, 4cu net at 35hz double baffle Circa 2012 I believe when I joined up.  It was real close to this model....

I'm not sure what orientation would be best in this smaller suv I was thinking sub rear port rear but I'm just guessing at best. Will be playing mostly decaf and russticals so was wanting to not kill this driver by unloading that's why I thought 33 or something lower would possibly be best but again I'm not to savvy on enclosure design lol.

Cornut that looks really nice like professional grade. Thank you, I bet that thing got down right? I'm hoping to at least make a good enough enclosure to make someone say damn that's one 10 on a 500? Ok!
