L7 15 skoolie

[Tatersalad]

Ok people with way more experience than me, ive got a skoolie conversion with a set of l7s I had laying around from years ago. Still work great but looking for box tips. I've got them in a much too small of a box under the bed but it fit the budget at the time. I've heard they love air space and now I've got the money for some mdf and a new box under the bed. I've got 18 inches to the bottom of the queen bed. All the space under the bed is fair game. Just wasn't sure if ported or sealed would be better for such a large interior? Thanks for any and all help.

Those subs indeed need their space 4 to 6 cubic feet per driver is what they usually are given for ported use, if will use those in your room rather than a car tuning should be in the mid 20s not in the mid 30 which is what is given for car use.

 

It all depends on the application, you will need to be more specific on your dimensions, music you play, or movies or whatever you are doing with them, how are you powering the subs, etc.

I'm running an American bass 2k or 4k can't remember off the top of my head, music mostly but I listen to a little of everything and can adjust levels accordingly.  It's a full size school bus and I have an entire queen bed area to work with under the bed. I'll get a tape on it tonight and get actual measurements. I appreciate the advice so far, thank you!
