Is this box diagram OK for 12" RL-p?

Recommended Posts

Hi guys. I am going to build the box for an RL-p 12" today. I made some measurements in the wagon, and made this design. Take a look at the attached diagram. I first made external measurements, and then I adjusted for the 3/4" MDF. That adjustment took away a LOT of cubic feet, so I need you to verify that the calculations look correct. Sorry, but this forum won't allow me to upload the spreadsheet. Thanks,

MX

OK, box is done. The finished product came out with a little more cubic feet than planned. Plan was around 1.25 - 1.3. Final space is around 1.42. Do you think this will be OK?

Enjoy the pics.

is the 1.42 before or after sub? if before sub, then subtract the .18 and u get 1.24...lol....which is what i i got earlier in this thread...

it looks really good, nice and solid.

i like ur thinking....build the enclosure, the sub will come. :fing34:

and with ur planned 600wrms, that ought to really sound sweet!

mrray,

Actually, the finished product is 1.42. Somehow I missed the calcs, since I was originally planning for 1.25. The 3/4" internal measurments through me off once or twice :Doh:

The box is very solid, and the fit into the Audi was flawless. I designed the back ridge to slide under the cargo bar in the back. Fit was to the 1/16th inch.

Now I just need to find someone to carpet the box. Matching navy blue carpet would look like it was straight from the Audi factory :D
