bigbodylexus Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 First let me start off by saying that I know this is more of an enclosure question but I figured you guys would be more helpful to me. I am getting ready to order my Z15's and the maximum amount of space I can use in the trunk of my Camry is 17.5 x 40 x 20 (which should give me about 6.5 cubes), Jacob said that should be fine but I am curious about designing an enclosure for these things. I like ported enclosures but am not quite sure which direction to take as far as designing this thing. I would much rather take the design plans and have someone build them than to go to a shop and let them "guess" at what would sound right, Thanks!

banginAltima Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 I would highly recommend using four 4 inch or two 6 inch Precision Ports. Quote If you build it, db's will come...

Derrick824 Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 Use those exact measurements w/ four 4" ports. You'll end up right around 5.8-5.9ft net volume after sub & port displacement giving a 35hz tune. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll end up right around 5.8-5.9ft net volume after sub & port displacement giving a 35hz tune. Right in the sweet spot for volume and tuning. Quote If you build it, db's will come...
