SPL & SQ / Fabrication

As the title says...I have 14.25 cubes available. I want to run 2 zcon 18's. I don't know anything at all whatsoever about designing a box. With that said, after subtracting driver displacement, port displacement, and bracing, will I have enough room? If not I have a Zcon 18" Dual 2 for sale lawl

Can someone check my work, to verify I am gaining maximum beneficial value from the bracing? From my understanding the bracing has two primary functions, other than structural support. To keep two panels from having the same resonate frequency, and to break up standing waves. Is there any adjustments I should make? Will I benefit from routeing the bracing edges round? Should I add a few randomly placed triangle braces? Remove the diagonals from the center brace? This is my first enclosure with matrix bracing, so I could have a big red flag in there and wouldn't know it. The enclosure is built for two SSA 15" Icons sealed, running 2000 watts total. The final …

Basically those bars connect the hinges from the left and right of trunk lid. They are bent in that way to accommodate the 6x9 speakers. I am going to remove the speakers this week. Could I replace them with some straight bar???

Here is the quick rundown: 4 Soundqubed HDS300 FS 33.65 hz QMS 6.912 QES .769 QTS .692 VAS .782 Ft3 Outside dimmensions of box: 16.3"x41"x27" = 10.44 all setup in a common chamber Port size: 8"x40"x65.88" @ 30 hz I believe this is all correct but what a double check before I build this box. Thanks

hey im workin on my new box and im puttin mirrors in side and i need to know how to get them securely attatched where they wont fall off later does anybody have any suggestions ?

Im designing a box to go under the rear seats of my Ford F150 but i dont have any designing programs i have the specs for the biggest sealed box that i can fit but i want to design a ported box tuned to 33 Hz for a 10" Fi Bl. If anyone can design a box using these specs it would help me out alot! and let me know how many cuft the box is. thanks!

I want to do a install of 4 15s in trunk of grand prix. I will be building inside trunk. I just need help, and suggestions on designs. Let me know guys. 37" wide and with 16" tall, and roughly 50" long(from trunk opening to rear seats.

hey guys, im going to attempt to build the box for this zcon but i cant draw if my life depended on it. so if i get the max dimensions up on here, can someone sketch me one up right quick? 4.5cubes tuned@ 34 would be nice. let me know if anyone can help me out! Thanks

In the trunk of my car, there are two bars running across the top of my trunk, that attach to my trunk lid, i suppose its there to adjust tension for my trunk lid, will if i remove those i can get an extra 2" height and that will make a large difference for my enclosure and layout in general. Anyone remove these before?

I understand that if you have the same setup you need to double your wattage each time to get 3 db louder. My question is when you get up to say 4kw and you have to double it to 8kw to get 3 db louder is there a significant difference in loudness? Is it the same audible difference than say the same setup at 200 rms is doubled to 400 rms.

ok well I have been toying with the idea of 2 15's in a wall in the bug (13cf gross) but will that much air movein in their cause cancelation or something that would hurt my score more than help it. I also only have usaci comps up where I'm at so I am allowed to open my doors and such just woundering. Thank mc

just broke off the spoiler on my 93 civic hatch with the bass, even caught it on tape. wondering if a new carbon fiber wing will last longer or if it will just break faster?

Wondering if anybody has seen the cargo area walled ? I don't want to lose my back seats in my Tahoe. I am wondering if 4 15" SSA DCON's walled in the cargo area would do some good hair tricks ? Thanks for any input !!

Picked up a buddies old back not too long ago(Sir-lancelot) he previously had vinly on it and used the carpet spread glue not the spray. My plans are to repaint it glossy black for a ht box with a couple of other changes BUT the glue is so thick and isn't coming off! What would be the best way to remove it back to bare mdf? I been using a heat gun but it will take hours and hours to make a significant progress that way.

ive been told that puttin carpet on the inside of a box will make the sub think the box is bigger there for sound better or louder. but i personaly like fiberglassing the inside to gurantee its super sealed and not falling apart ported or selad enclosure which would be the better idea or maybe carpet over fiberglass

alright guys.. what are some good ways to carpet ur boxes.. like techniques.. or whatever.. what matterials do i need to use besides carpet haha ..

How do you guys carpet your boxes? I am going to be carpeting on saturday and was wondering what you guys think is the best/easiest way to do it.

Whats the best agent to apply ur carpet to your enclouse?

I've always painted my sub boxes and thought i might try giving carpeting a go. I was wondering where you guys buy you carpet from? I'd like something cheap, but of decent/good quality. (doesnt everyone. lol) Thanks in advance

hey guys my friend has a cda-9855 that has a big green wire what does that do becouse it was cut when he got it will it work with out that wire thanks

Has anyone ever put an center channel in a late 90s model Chevy / GMC ??? Truck or SUV (same dash literally where the defroster vents are concerned) ... I know there will be ALOT of work to go into this ... most likely will never happen, but, you never know... I'm not really concerned about it helping or hurting my stage and image at this time ... I'm just interested to see if it has been done ... I'm considering either a 5.25 or 6.5 driver (full range) ... Thanks in advance ...

I haven't seen much on center consol builds and what I have found people seem to frown on them, but my brother has always wanted to build a custom center consol for his truck. Its a 2006 Chevy Silverado extended cab. He now has my old equipment and we are going to start on it. The sub will be a 12" death. It will fit between the two front seats, firing towards the rear of the cab. The center consol will be built all the way to the bottom of the dash, so the required airspace won't be a problem. The only thing I'm really not sure on is how to run the ports. We could build it so that the port either fires towards the driver side/passenger side of the truck, or both. …

So I'm trying to make a center console and I'm going to put some 6.5 evils in both sides of it. Seeing is the mids are facing back to back should I put a divider between them? Is it going to call his cancellation if I don't? If I do or don't should I be putting polyfill inside this also?

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has made or heard a sub placed between the front seats. I have a venture mini van. I can have about 1cf of space to work with (id). If you have done this or heard a setup like this please let me know what you thought. Thanks, Duane

IM abiut to dig in and start my own center console here in the next few days. Any tips and things to look out for? I want to incorporate this touch panel that ive been working on...also some clean plexi....my tablet and possibly an armrest/compartment for random stuff. Ive seen some awesome stuff on Google....shoot me some info. Thanks!!!
