that excursion though.....

Thanks man! Every dollar counts :cheers:

dbl post fail lol

So from what you're saying If I have the room it would be best to make a dual chamber box to maximize efficiency? I didn't know that that still could be that much of a difference concerning the overall volume. I can easily fit a ~14 cu.ft. box. It will be going into a 05 grand cherokee.

is that 8.25-9 cubicfeet PER SUB OR TOTAL? I'd be surprised if there was that much of a difference if the subs each have their own chamber. btw my plan is for a shared chamber. my current mock up consists of a 4" x 36" port that is against one edge of the box. I want to kerf the 36" side that isn't against the edge with roughly a 3" radius i believe. I'll check the design and put up some pics tomorrow.

Thanks CJ appreciate it.

Bump! Want to work on this now since i have access to a computer with autocad Also how do you work in a kerfed port? More or less, how does it affect the length and tuning of the port? Although I won't be able to make a huge radius kerf I do want to give it a whirl on the exposed end of the port.

Can anyone reccomend a ballpark port area for 2 DC LVL4 18s AND/OR 2 DC XL 18s? I'm not sure if the area would vary too much between the two. I was planning on tuning to 35hz. But this is also a brief question... Would 35hz be a well rounded tune for most varieties of music? I listen to roughly 40% rap/hip hop, 40% dubstep,edm/ other various electronic stuff, and 20% rock. Thanks for any help! __Andrew

once im back from vaca im planning on using some thin plywood or thick cardboard with a roll or two of gorilla tape and try to seal the trunk off

I didn't use primer and am a lil annoyed i didn't. At certain angles with the light the texture does show pretty clearly. I'm not too concerned tho still turned out pretty good. I'll shoot um some pics of the car tonight or tm. Dropping the car off tm to get the whole drivers side fixed up while im on the beach in florida haha. finally putting the body work over the bass lol

internal bracing with a 1 1/2" dowel rod. Cuts werent perfect either, but i went heavy on the glue and used #12 2" screws to secure them Baffle cut out and mounted subs in and looking sexy So its been roughly 4 months since then. ripped the box out the other day to give the baffle a face lift popped out the level 4 12's after applying some wood filler some good sanding, more wood filler along with more sanding. touched up the port and gave the baffle 4 coats of a nice gloss black added a decal i had laying around flash really shows the gloss

super delay but finally got my laptop functional (had a full beer filter through the keyboard lol) so ill update this started off by running the new power and ground wire and adding my new xp750 old 4ga vs new xskorpion 1/0 ofc did some digging and couldnt have found a more perfect hole in the firewall hiding right behind/under my battery! crimped and soldered cable management. also lucked out seeing as this was able to fit (barely) under the trim that runs along the side of the car rough and messy wire up but it was a lot of progress for the day so i was happy now for the new box to accommodate the second 12 i aquired started off on the double baffle next on some of the angled port walls. didnt turn out as well as i wanted it to but it is still functional. EDIT;; also forgot I ran out of birch so instead of wasting 20 bones on a 4x4 sheet i used some scrap mdf i had lying around. since it was only for the internal port wall and will never really be seen i wasnt too concerned. got the box started and placing the port. also painted all the visual parts of the port blue for later port and top piece secured

Just graph the function on your calculator (guessing you have a ti83 or 84) and hit 2nd, calc, minimum, then move the cursor left of the min &hit enter, right of the min &hit enter, then enter once more should give ya coordinates Edit, yeaaaaaa that shit can get distracting real quick haha

Take first derivative and set equal to zero.. if u got the x value right u should just have to plug it into the equation and get a y value. But I'm drunk tired Nd failing calc 3 good luck bro hahaha
