SPL & SQ / Fabrication

Hey everyone. I'm starting my first build today and the dimensions of my box are going to be around 34w x 18h x 16deep. I wanted to have subs up and port along the bottom of the box facing the trunk (its a hatchback) and doing that would tune it to high. Am I able to put the port in the middle of the bottom or does the port have to be along the whole edge it is on? If it has to be along the whole edge I will probly put in vertically on the back side on either the left or right edge. Please help, this is urgent. I'm going to be starting it in a couple hours. Thanks, Ted

I am looking for someone in the Portland area to build a box for me. I am very capable but don't have the tools at the moment. I have the design. It a pwk. For 2 12's with a 6" aero. I don't trust the dealers out here, plus they'd want too much $$$.

So I used to run my Fi SSD 18 in a 9cuft box tuned to 32hz (or close, it was my first box build and I had some hard times with it). I liked how it sounded, though it was on the high end as far as box recommendations go for an SSD 18. The thing with the box was that it suffered slight water damage and aesthetically wasn't as pleasing as I preferred. I was looking to either paint it or put some sort of vinyl or something over it to improve its looks, but never got around to it. Another thing that was annoying about the box was how LARGE it was lol. It was initially designed for my room, but was moved out to my Jeep Cherokee. I wanted to keep the back seats up, so the only w…

i want to make the box fit in my 2000 honda accord and made the measurements on the bigest box i could make 34 inches long 21 inches deep and 16.5 inches high (might be able to go higher) will this be big enough? and how big should the port be to tune it to 32 hertz?

I checked their forum and it seems to have died off.

I am trying to plan how I am going to build a box to go in the ex cab of my toyota truck. I am putting 2 Fi Q15's in it. The space I have to work with is 53'' wide 17'' depth and 22'' tall. I was told to use 1 layer of 3/4'' MDF then after the box is done add a 2nd layer of 3/4'' MDF to the outside of the box to help reinforce it, is this right? This is the first box I have build so I just wanna make sure I get it right. But this is what I have come up with so far, how does is this right, the subs call for about 4 cub feet each tuned to around 33.

Dose any body have contact info for Fi audio I can not find a phone # for them to save my life and my e mails have gone unanswered

I am designing a slot ported box for a bl15 fully loaded. I am looking for 4.18ft^3(4.0 after speaker displacement) @ 32hz. I just need to make sure I got my measurements right. The dimensions(external) are (H)19.5 x (W)45 x (D)14.5. The port is (H)18 x (W)4 x (L)38. Am I right? And is 72in of port area to much? Oh yeah 3/4 mdf is the wood I'll be using.

I built this for a friend of mine. Its about 2.52 cuft per sub with 40 square inches of port per sub tuned to 36 Hz. The objective was to build a box that filled up the back of his truck. But that was too much air space overall, so we pretty much built a box inside of a box.. The pic of the inside looks pretty sick.

I am looking to build another box but want something unique yet efficent. I'll pay for the design. Some specs on the trunk: Cannot be over 14" tall x 20"wide x doesnt matter too much over 40" deep. The box will be for a 12" btl loaded off 2 aq2200s. I would prefer tuning no higher than 32hz. Lets see what someone can do.

I have 2 ReAudio SE 12's. I need a box design ASAP. It's going to sit in the back seats of my 2005 Chevy 4 door 2500HD. So the box can just be square, port center or one side. I want it to hit low ( listen to rap and rock ) but at the same time be ok in comps if I want to go ( for fun but still like to do good. ). The reason I just want it a simple design is so I can remove the box when needed not much room behind the seats so that was not an option. I plan to make this out of 3/4 MDF as well so may need to brace it. I will need a design with all measurements of course. I am just going to have lowes cut the peaces for me. A 3D design would be great so I can see how it all…

hi all i recently purchased a fi q 18 to go in my 95 4 door explorer and now i need to come up with the plans for the box so i can start building. my maximum dimensions for the box are 40 wide by 40 deep by 22 high. i am a some what skill full carpenter but i need help in the tunning area. also if anyone has a similar setup to what i will have and still has the plans lying around i would greatly appreciate it or if someone could use or tell me where i can find a box calculator to spec out this box that would also be greatly appreciated. oh and lastly i am open to using a t line but would need the plans to build one. …

What would be the best way to wire into the box. Best as in the most secure, and most current flow. A friend of mine just drilled holes and fed the wire through, then just siliconed around to seal it up. I have also heard of people driving bolts through and wiring to them. If this will work, what type/metal bolt would be best. My last setup used actual terminals that I got from Sound Advice. I siliconed the back of them in, but not sure if they were secure enough. All advice is appreciated.

I am tryin to work out a box plan for 2 18" Fi Q's, the box i am plannin will really be 2 seperate boxes. 1 for each 18 then bolted togather, then trim paneled in to look like 1 box. Doing 2 boxes to make it easier to pull the boxes in and out(I am a 1 man build crew) of the van(2000 Gmc safari). Here is what i came up with from RE's web site. Each box will be 25" wide by 34" inches deep by 21" tall wood thickness will be 3/4 inch mdf, port width will be 4.5 port height will be 19.5 and the lenght will be 28.75 to give me a box that is tuned at 28.18Hrz and gives me 6.766 ft of airpace. Do you guy think this box will be ok for everyday driving, I am looking for good …

My car is a dodge charger,my system will consist of 2 12"subwoofers maybe "maybe 15 inch woofers if they fit.my two extra batteries can go in my spare tire area and my amp can be mounted on back of my seat.my woofers will be running off a saz3500,my question is will my setup get way luder if my box ports through the rear deck?or shold i do a box toward the rear of my car with the ports on the side?i dont mind doing a port in my rear deck if its gonna get alot louder that way..

Maybe its just me, but, i was just on their website and they didnt have any events posted in Cali....... anyone shed some light on this..

Well, I thought this guy was going to help me out with coming up with the specs to build a box, but he barely replies to my emails. So now I am trying to figure out the specs for a box. I would rather build it due to cost, and have looked at the box builders further down on the site, but they are a little expensive. It will be for an 18" Fi btl, as I'm sure many other people have already asked for help on this. I don't have a limitation really for room for the recommended sizes because I have an SUV. Width about 41" from side to side, and I'll have to go measure the height and depth. I listen to rap. I'd rather have it be sub up, port back, but not a side port unless it…

i need a box built for a 06 supercrew f-150 any help with be greatly appreciated

To figure how much air a specific subwoofer should need using the information like, (VCdia: 1-1/4" *Impedance: 4 ohms *Re: 3.6 ohms *Frequency range: 45-1,500 Hz *Fs: 45 Hz *SPL: 82 dB 2.83V/1m *Vas: .24 cu.ft. *Qms: 2.68 *Qes: .61 *Qts: .49 *Xmax 9.25mm) and does any one know a good thing or two about designing t lines.

Since soon I will be installing a new sub in my truck (if i can ever get in contact with nick at IA) so while i have the 180lb behemoth out of my truck i figured I'd slap the leftover second skin somewhere. Im looking for the most quiet and the most potential SPL gain. My doors have 1 layre on the door skin and 1 1/2 on the door (didnt botehr putting a second layre over the window acess gap incase i ever need to acess the window) I have 2 on the back wall and that helped a LOT. It went from slapping my bedliner to maybe 1/2" of movement full tilt. I feel much more comfertable upping my SPL now that my back window isnt dancing...as much. The floor and firewall would proba…

ANYONE know who can or knows ppl who can please i am desperate
