LordArcane Posted November 5, 2009 Report Posted November 5, 2009 if she is listening to rock also i would say go with sealed for sure, i got my 2 10's ported in a 33hz tuned box and when i listen to rosk or metal it just doesn't hit or is that punchy if you know what i mean, rap on the other hand ya if she listens to mostly rap more then anything then go port just my 2 cents Quote

tacomabanga1986 Posted November 5, 2009 Author Report Posted November 5, 2009 i just did something Quick and Easy , its not my best (im used to doing bigger boxes,lol).Anyway all u have to do is think of what to Cover it in. if u can Paint good you should try this. Edit: here's the same one but colored haha cool, i useto work at a furniture factory staining furniture n puttin on lacker n repare so i dnt think paint will be that bad ima use some birch plywood we got layin around to build it wit, just tape off one side n paint if n then mask off the other n should work out fine i think, would u do a matte black or gloss black with a red flextone on top? i was gunna carpet 3/4 of the box n then paint the top with red flextone paint but i dnt want it to look like shit, n how would i do the carpet, just let it rest at the endge n then from there? or carpet the full box n just attach another baffle to resess the subs n fill in holes n paint that?

IDK. I've used it for vinyl. I'm about to upload the basic box. I've yet to put a good finish on it. I'm gonna work on that when I get the pics on here.

1992Chevy K1500 Posted November 7, 2009 Report Posted November 7, 2009 (edited) I added a single 1x4 brace for the hell of it. You don't have to put it in there. That was just cause I felt like it. I flush mounted the subs for you. From the pics I could find, the box should fit with some room to spare. Anyway, the subs will be a little close to the walls. You'll have to be carefull cutting the holes. The center of the holes are exactly 6 inches from the side walls and centered between the fron and back walls. The box can be faced up, back, or forward. I'm about to finish it now. EDIT: what color is the car? EDIT EDIT: Here the box is carpeted. The Toyota Celica is just a little extra touch.

tacomabanga1986 Posted November 7, 2009 Author Report Posted November 7, 2009 haha cool shit ya the car is red but i unno interior color tho, i'll halfto ask her Quote here's a link to my system 99 toyota tacoma , 2 mtx 8000 1504's in a sealed downfire , 1000w memphis amp here's a link to my other system my 90 geo prizm test car heres a thread i got of new songs u can dl that are legal = Some Good Bangage/you Can Dl These Free And Legit
1992Chevy K1500 Posted November 7, 2009 Report Posted November 7, 2009 haha cool shitya the car is red but i unno interior color tho, i'll halfto ask her Awesome. I still have the original sketchup file so I can go back and change anything I need to. Just let me know. Oh, and box specs. Internal volume is 1.214 cubes before displacement. From what I see, you can go bigger if need be (depending on how much volume the subs take up). I'm assuming they take up .1 cubes a peice. Box dimensions are 10.75H x 25W x 12D and it is double baffled mostly for looks.
