    Box design for 2 12" Dcons

    Ok... after looking all over the net at different setups in xBs, I think I'm gonna run with the design in the thread I originally listed. I'll just keep the seats down to face it to the rear, and face the box up when I have passengers. Or I may just keep it firing up after seeing all the rides I just checked out, seems to be the go-to in this vehicle. One last question though (not sure if I should post in a different area for this one...if so I'll be happy to move this).... subsonic filter. I'm running a Kenwood 5 channel amp that pushes 500RMS at 2 ohms to the sub channel. It only has low and high pass filters along with a bass boost adjustment. Running 250 to each sub, I'm pretty sure from all I've read that I'll need to add a ssf to keep from damaging them. Am I right? I'm pretty strapped for cash after all the equipment I've added so I'm just looking something relatively inexpensive to get the job done.

    Thanks BigGuy.... I hope so. That sounds more within reach!

    18" depth is only good to around 10" height..... downhill from there. Looks like a wedge would be my only option. UNLESS..... down firing? Or up?? Had not thought about it, but dimensions may allow for that. But how would that sound?

    The prebuilt ones on the site are 4.... optimal per is 2.25. I want to get as close to that as possible while maintaining a 32hz tuning..... if that's possible with the limited space.

    Just did.... thanks for the tip. However, the only designs I'm finding have at least a 20" depth. I have the 20" base, yet the angle of the seats limits me to 15" depth by the time 18" of height is reached. Any possibility of a ported wedge design within those specs that anyone knows of?

    Ok... this isn't gonna work. Too deep. I'm putting this in the back of a 2004 Scion xB. Looks like I have around 17-18 inches from the seats to the hatch. Looking at the enclosures for sale I see a 20"+ depth, so I may be sol on ported. Looks like it's sealed until I can find a design.
