Hey, well over the past couple days ive been smoothing out the wall that ive had for about 3-4 months. i couldnt do anything before because it was -15 degree C all the time. the last few days have been +2 to 4 degrees, warm enough for a tshirt. but today its about -2. If i kept goin today, itd be done and painted, but is it too cold for bondo to cure? or will it just take longer to cure? thanks

Ive got a sundown 3000 amp and a 300amp circuit breaker. ive been to a few comps and my circuit breaker has blown in some of my runs. Is it ok to run the system without the circuit breaker just for comps?

I am looking for some songs with very good LOW bass notes. The best I have so far are: 24 23 by Trae (and by jeezy, there are two versions), Dopeman by OJ Da Juiceman and In Tha Hood by Trae. Preferably not chopped and screwed (or slowed), as I can do that myself if needed. Thanks, --Chris

I have a 2003 Jeep GCL and i am wondering if I can fit 2 21 inch Wardens in the rear storage area, a ported box would be optimal. I am just unsure if I have enough volume in order to fit the box. If anyone has any experience with the storage capacity of a jeep please help out.

Hi, Just pick up a HDS208, Would like some help with a box design. Because i don't know how much Sd this speaker takes up. I'm just looking at a 1cuft box tune to 35hz. look at a box 14x20x10 external measurement with a 3inch aero port x 16.5 Please advise, Gao

I'm working on a box design for a single ported SA-12. I looked at the Sketchup design they have for a 1-12 ported, and I came up with this for my vehicle. It seems pretty dead on. Is the 13.5" x 2" port too narrow? The one in the Sketchup is 14" x 2" so I figure it's good. Thanks.

When using a PR in place of a port, you would keep the same internal box volume as the equivalent ported enclosure, correct?

If I do my setup the way I'm thinkin, looks like I can only fit tens. Max diemensions is 34 w X 15 h, I'm pretty certain. I've got the rest of my truck bed in regards to length. I've got a few ideas.. Lemme explain this. First off, these are overhead view of how the box would be. There not to spec or anything, just some ideas. Its not the right diemensions or anythin.. just some ideas how I could fit a few 10s. Would fire into my window. The first one, top left, is a sealed box, kinda based on a clamshell on its side. second one has four subs, and a port in the middle. Bottom is just a ported box with two tens firing into the window (not sure if you could fit two tens an…

ok ill give a quick run down of what i would like to do.. i would like to build an upside down L box.. with the slot port going into my cabin.. and my subs on the long part of the L inverted. to save space and show off motor... here is a pic of my trunk. the top part is is 10 tall... 19 deep and 41 wide. from the floor to the step level is 14 and from the floor to the top lip is 26 and i want to port thru the rear deck ill cut this all away i know its kinda hard to picture what im talkin about... ill come up with some sketches of what i would like.. but im wondering WILL IT WORK!!> i need some where around 3 cubes and tuned to 30htz thanks guys, ps. not…

so i want to use 2 10" aero ports, sono tubes,... and i dont know how to find out how long they should be, i want to start off at 32hz, on a box that is 15.4cf or a box that is 16.6cf, i want to put the ports in side so do i have to subtract the area space of the tubes or just find the calculation with out taking out the area space of the tubes???

ive never done it before is it hard ive seen pics of people doing it but i dont really know what to do i think i need a video or tutorial i couldnt really find a good one most were for boxes i dont want to make a box and i need to know all what to buy the speakers are already mounted in my door i just want to cover up the ugly hole around it so just the speakers show

i just finished my 5 CuFt box for my fi bl 15 and i used just about every square inch of my MDF wood i had for the box. my question is if its ok to use 3/4 inch plywood for my second baffle? i have a bunch lying around and would be nice instead of buying a huge sheet of MDF i would barely use. lemme know what u guys think! Thanks!!

alright calm down.. i know the SQ guys are all worked up with sand in thair clams right about now.... i want better sound in my car.. i have some highs and mids but not enough.. i wanna get a cleaner sound. i have 2 bl 15's on a saz 3000d. and then i have 2 sets of 5x7 alpine typr R comps in the doors and in the rear deck. it sounds good at mid to low volume, but when i turn it up to higher volumes the tweeters are steal sounding and the word are ran over a bit by the subs.. its not THAT bad.. if you watch some of my vids you can see that some songs are better then others ...... some sound good.. and then other songs are just blah... i know 5x7s are junk..…

I am building a full system for a friend in her trailblazer and need a little guidance to make sure I'm on the right path. She listens to 90% country music and about 10% classic rock. She likes loud but nothing over the top. I pretty well have the front stage sorted. Deleting rear speakers. Have a pretty head unit picked out lol. Front stage amp is done. Which leaves me with the sub and enclosure. Previous set up she had was a single 10" kicker comp in a sealed enclosure on 300 watts in a trunk. What she did not like about it was the output was a little weak and it lacked the tight impact she was looking for. Her requirements are small footprint and $150 or less. I c…

Ok, I just want to know some of your guys experiences with t-nuts or huricain nuts, wich ones hold better? The screws I am using are not holding well in mdf so I need to get somthing stronger

Any use this program to model stuff? If so, im too broke to pay for it

i have a 89 chevy 1500 standard cab and am tryin to design a box that will fit behind the seat. Anybody on here have any expericence with these vehicles and enclosures like this?

I've got a 2.4 cube box tuned to 30 hz with a 3" aero port. The sub is a Fi Bl 12 getting about 750 watts off a Powerbass ASA1500.1. I went to comp last sunday and did a 136.8 at 44hz. If I made the port tuned to 35 hz, or even 38 hz, would my score go up? I'm not too worried about the competition in my class since I am sitting in 2nd place in the circuit, but it's always nice to be louder.

Was just wondering if anyone has built a series 6th order for a 12" or 15" ZCON. Would be interested in any enclosure specs and experiences you could share. Thanks.

What do they look like and are they good? i ask cause i have someone willing to build one in a trade for a DD2512...

Ok I've been doing a lot of research on standard 6th order bandpass boxes, and haven't found enough information to decide if its better than standard ported for spl. If I tune a 6th order with a very narrow high output passband, such as 39hz rear and 44hz front, or in this general region, will it be louder than a ported box with a similar tuning? From what I've seen the 6th order will boost output higher, but it strains the subwoofer more and lowers power handling, so it has more output but you can put less power to it so they balance out... I want to try one out but if you guys think it wont be louder than just ported for spl use only then it's not worth trying. Also I…

I'm redoing my box for 3-10" (or 3-12" not sure yet). Now currently my port is down low facing the dash. The current box is a TON louder with all the windows down vs up. I know this is normal sometime, but I don't like driving around disturbing everyone with them down, lol. So I was wondering if moving the port would help or make a difference? Port up with the subs, port back towards the back wall of the truck, or try it again with the new box faceing towards the dash again? Just an idea of what it looks like at this time. You can see the "box" at the bottom. It's an "semi-external" with 8" outside & 4" inside to save some space.

Well I pulled the trigger and I got 2 evil 18s. A lot of my friends are telling me 4th order bandpass I'm not completely sold on doing it. One of my friends has the same Subs and paid for a custom design for his vehicle where sealed is 5.5 cubes ported is 14.8. SSA recommends 4.5 - 6.25 sealed. I realize that is strictly for a sealed box, but my question is that 5.5 that they have designed for him is only big enough for 1 sub. Is the design rules different with 4th orders? I'm leaning more towards just a regular ported but my thought process was for an extra 2-3cu tops why not have the same set up?
