15" DC XLs new box


Recommended Posts

Ok, so I just made a new box a couple weeks ago. It sounded great with the subs inverted on the back of the box and tube ports forward, but i wanted to go back to ports and subs forward. The box is a little smaller, but i was able to use a previous box and make it work. It aint pretty, but damn its louder. :)

Here is the old box i used.

I took out the long sections of the tube port and left the other pieces for support. My bro Carlos helped and we sanded the edged of the supports round.

YES, I KNOW I'M GOING TO HELL FOR THE SINGLE BAFFLE. Didn't have the wood.

Its all in. Took it for a lil test run last night and it is a noticeable improvement from the last design. We also removed the Gravity Bass Machine(never used it). I will get some videos up when i can.

My pup Chitto helped with the cleanup

Looks good, but why not just slot port it?

I had a slot port, but after port displacement it made the box too small and took the tuning from 35 hertz to 42 hertz. I didnt want to use a tiny port just to get my tuning back down. This is also why the tubes extend from the box, to save airspace inside.
