LordArcane Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tacomabanga1986 Posted November 5, 2009 Author Report Share 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 Share 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 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1992Chevy K1500 Posted November 7, 2009 Report Share 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.
