How to ship a SubWoofer!


Recommended Posts

man thats the only way ive ever done a circle for a sub, but if im doin alot of holes i just find out the internal diameter for the speaker/sub and cut out a circle on the bandsaw and just trace it on the wood when i find center and it works

but i still rock it oldschool with the make shift guage, i always get the circle right that way

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

Its all packaged up and ready for shipping, I dont feel like taking the top off and the woofer out to wire it up, then Id have to disconnect my mayhems in my truck and wire that up to my amp. Too much hassle :(

But I work for a company that sells Industrial woodworking machines, saws, sanders, etc and this is how items get shipped to us and we package up used stuff that we sell. Only on a smaller scale. So if this method works for big machines that cost $1,000 to $300,000 machines I think it should be good enough for a subwoofer :)

Most of the wood I used for this was the old shipping crate for our new SawStop that costs well over $4,000 with all the accessories we got with it. Dope as hell table saw, I felt so nervous using a normal tablesaw that has no saftey features. :(

If you dont know what a sawstop is search for it on youtube! they are very nice and quiet too. I can talk on a cellphone while cutting a piece of wood and hear the other person on the phone just fine and vice versa. :)

Edit for video.

Legal TL scores145.6 on the dash sealed up in the low 40hz area with the port out145.5 on the dash sealed up @30hz with the port inless then 1k clamped on a 3.5k!

Why would you EVER WANT flex?
huh?...flex is what can make the lows lower and more air being pushed correct?

No problem on the tutorial, and hopefully it does good in transit :)

thanks for comments! :)

The whole goal of this thread is to put the sellers mind at ease (me in this case), and the buyers. So both know that the item being sold will arrive in 1 piece in perfect condition, so no one ends up losing any sleep :)

With comments like that, it makes me almost feel you dont care about the person your selling too..

Umm no they dont... bubble wrap will pop from the weight of a woofer being bounced on it...

If you dont have access to a tablesaw, circular saw, jig saw, drill, and your into car audio you better worry about buying some tools for your future builds before buying more audio stuff.

There is only 2 ways to properly ship a 40+ pound subwoofer in my opinion.

A: The manufactures original packaging.

B: A wooden crate which should be way stronger then most companies original packaging.
