Chambers vs. Open

Recommended Posts

If i wanted to build a box that was for two 15's that require 3.25 cubes each i know if they had separate chambers they would get 3.25 each. But if i wanted to just have the subs in the same chamber would it need to be 6.5 cubes? I'm just talking sealed for now.

thanks in advance for any help.

I wouldn't do common chamber sealed...but yes, it would have to be 6.5 cubes...

why would you not do a common chamber sealed box?

I feel the sub cones would end up working on each other with all the pressure inside the box....that's just me though...

Thats why i asked i thought that if the subs did hit even a slight bit different time it would work against each other making the dubs, drivers, and in turn the amp and electrical system work harder. Thanks for the info i really apperciate it. Im playing with SKP right now see if i cant get my ideas down on paper

The elctrical system would end up working harder powering subs in a sealed setup either way; most subs can handle 2x the rms in a sealed enclosure...your welcome, glad i can help! :)
