This will be walled off behind the second row of seats. Bracing will be in the form of threaded rod. The only reason its in the van now is cause I dont have any room in the garage for it.

yeah you should have made it a bit taller but other than that it looks good

After thinking about it I can use the extra space for bracing. I'll put 2x4s up there to brace the top.

Looks great, do you have any plans to brace the box or double the baffle?

I thought the P3000.1 was a lot bigger.. or am I missing something?

Looks awesome either way though, I only hope for a wife that would let me rip apart her minivan someday.

sorry for thread jacking... :popcorn:

No problem I was wondering how long it would take for someone to say something. Its a ZR120 for the fronts. Had to have something for the ride to work. The Massive in sitting in the house waiting.

Bad news I'm tearing it all out. Kind of disappointed with the box design. Cant do hair tricks. Sounds ok its loud but the wall has moved the freq up to about 55 and need to refigure the box to maxamise the resonance freq.

Are you tuning your new box freq to 55 or are u going to try to change the whole resonance freq? If your just going to tune the box to 55 there's an easier way than tearing the whole thing out and starting again.

No I think I goofed on the box design.Im getting no air movement out of the port. Plus its tuned to low. I need it tuned a little higher (35-40) to utilitized the peak of the van.It is 18.5 cubes with 250 sq inches of port. 51 wide 40 tall and 23.5 deep.

if your freq: is 55Hz port the box rufflly 10hz down so it peeks @ 55Hz !!!

if you port to 55Hz youll peek @ 65Hz and over shoot the mic's sweet spot... :slayer:
