Heres my box design:)

[dsmbasshead]

So after some "couseling"(lol) I finally came up with a box design....box is for 2 JBL GT5-10s(svc 4 ohm, 275rms each) pushed by a Rockford Fosgate R500-1(537 rms at 2 ohms[subs wired parallel for 2 ohm resistance].) Box is 2.98 cubes(total) with 2 3"x10" flared ports, turned at about 34hz. Suggested airspace is 1.25 cubes per woofer so the extra .48(2.98-2.5) should make up for the displacement. Box will be made out of 3/4" MDF so Board sizes will be 2-32"x15"(top and bottom), 2-15"x12.5"(sides) and 2-30.5"x12.5"(front and back.) Do those measurements make sense? Thats my design, what do ya think?Again please review the board measurments and im open to any imput or tips for the build. Should be going to price MDF today at lowes.

Heres the sketch...

If anybody has a calculator that I can input the demensions, and it will tell me the length of sheets of boards I need to cut, that would be sweet...I already calculated them but some technical assurance would be nice lol

Chris Torres has a box calculator that he built and hes on these forums, if you want I can give it a shot in sketch to make it look cleaner and give you the cutouts

from where Im at, it wont let me access it so if someone could imput the numbers, it would be SWEET! I know its alot to ask so if not, I completely understand.

34hz @ 2.5cft NET and 3cft GROSS cutouts are:

32x15 - TOP

32x15 - BOTTOM

12.5 x 13.5" - SIDES

32 x 12.5 - FRONT/BACK

I'd recommend another 10" of port area. maybe another flare port

want me to do a sketch?

[dsmbasshead]

if you could sketch the current specs(32"(w)x14"(h)x15"(d), 2 3"x10" flared ports in the middle[between woofers, like my sketch]) that would be sweet!

Ur awesome JBINN!!! Went to Lowes and got my MDF. Since its just a rectangular prism box, not slants or anything, they cut all the boards to size with their amazing saw lol...there were a few edges that were a milimeter off here and there but nothing major, should dissapear after sanding and will be un-noticable after carpeting. I may start building this Sunday, just depends on my schedule but I'll definantly keep yall posted:) Thanks for all the help!
