Cantrell2500HD Posted August 29, 2009 Report Share Posted August 29, 2009 Well here she is boyz, after hours upon hours of research and box design, I've come up with this box here. Kicker manual says subs want 3.5sqft for the compact ported box, I give 3.6995sqft. Kicker manual says box needs a port of 2.5"x13.25"x22.5", and thats what I provide. I plan on starting the build sometime Sat. or Sun. Let me know what y'all think of er', tell me if this is gonna be an ok box or not, as this is my first ported box it's kinda an experiment. The box: Material List: Lots of angles....

Cantrell2500HD Posted September 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 (edited) The new box sounds pretty kick ass, and may be a bit louder as I set off a car alarm in a parking lot that was 4 lanes and a median away.
