SPL & SQ / Fabrication

Hey guys I am in meca and I am hitting a 144.9 on music with the car off because I am in AS2. I was told at the lastest show the Vinny if I were to make a so called fart box box size of 3.5 cubic feet with like two 6 in aero ports and tuning at like 50 hertz my current setup is 5 cubic ft after displacment and tuned at 40 htz I beleive. What I am wanting to know will this so called fart box get me any louder and see the bad thing is we don't have anyone with a termlab around me to test it. My set is a up memphis mojo 15d2 and I have a sundown 1200.1 with four guage and soon to be hopefully two runs of 0guage. Any help with this guys would mean alot to me and my dad. Also…

I need help with designing an aero port enclosure. This is my first attempt. I am looking for 2.5 net and tuning 32hz, With corner bracing. I would appreciate all help I can get! Thanks.

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???

What is a good tuning point for a wall in a hatchback with 2 18's ?

well just picked up a 18 btl just wondering what everybody on here suggest for a box all opinions welcome. Will be running a hifonics cyclops xxv for power. thanks in advance.

For a slot port is 2" for the width too small? Will there be port noise? Box Specs: width: 25 height: 13 depth: 13 wood thickness: 0.75 port height: 11.5 port width: 2 port length 1: 10.25 port length 2: 14 tuning Hz: 37

I know I've seen plenty of people use spray/roll on bed linings for the outside of their enclosures and such. I am wondering two things though, was it applied to the bare MDF or with a primer on the MDF first and how well is it holding up after "x" amount of time? I'm about to start on the enclosure and amp rack for my Jimmy. I had planned to paint the port to match the truck and use standard charcoal colored cabinet carpet to cover the box and amp rack with. Though upon thinking about possible liquid damage to the MDF on the floor/amp rack I'll be building I thought perhaps the liquid bed liner may be the better route. I have no experience with it though so I was ho…

Hi all Just wondering if someone could help me design a 4th order bandpass box for my AA chaos 12" ive decided i want this for two reasons. 1 i own a sedan with a sealed off boot and this is meant to be one of the best boxes for this application. secondly these subs are meant to be awesome in 4th order. i plan to port the box through the speaker holes in the parcel tray. ohh the car is a toyota jzx100. ohh i also plan to use this as my daily box. thanks heaps.

I realize this is somewhat subwoofer dependent, but what are the best tuning frequencies for different goals like spl or sq. Also what would be a good way to match a subwoofer to the goals, T/S parameters? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

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'm trying to "model", if that's the correct term, a subwoofer in WinISD and BBP6 as a comparsion between the programs.. They both tune the enclosure super low. WinISD picks a net volume; BBP6 didn't have a specified net volume. Neither suggest port area.. Whats going on? EDIT: BBP6 tuned to 23 Hz (super low), WinISD tuned to a reasonable 34 Hz (but net volume was like .5 cuft)

Well I got a couple more 15" Rockford Fosgate RFR2215 Power DVC subs.. now I am ready to do my four 15's setup. At Slamology I got a 148.1 in DB Drag with 2 15's and 2 12's at 44hz. My goal with this new box build with four 15's is to hit 150db mark. I recently just started playing with Bass Box Pro and Google Sketchup and I have come up with a Design in Bass Box Pro and then tried to Model it the best I could in Google Sketchup so here it is. This will be powered by a T40001bd. 12 cubes after sub,port,bracing displacement with 1" MDF 4 6" PVC Ports 10.5" Long to get a tune at 38.01hz There will be a total of 9 1" Dowel rods for bracing in the box 4 from top to bottom 3…

alright so im building a box for 2 15" LI's. the box would be 33" in depth which gives me 3 inches from the hatch on my jimmy. i think i read on here somewhere that there should be a least 6 inches for it to load off whatever the ports facing. the subs would be on top and port on bottom.

Planing on tuning it to almost 42 hz. This will be a competition box for my 04 jeep liberty. Subs up port back left. My question is what type of sq foot should i use for this box. Alpine's site says use around 2.5^2 per sub in a ported enclosure. Also if it matters im planning on running these off of a Sundown SAZ 2500d

right now i have to re audio 10's in a sealed box in my 1991 mustang convertible. this is the dimensions of the box i have now 42" FrontWidth x 36" RearWidth x 8 H x 15" Depth its 1.9 cubes internal. i am planning on getting two ascendant audio arsenal 10's soon and wanted to make a fiberglass box. could i do this with such small space?

I have heard that mounting a 15" subwoofer (btl) in a car will be louder, or at least shake more, if it is facing up rather than back. does anyone have any experience or insight on this topic?

Just wondering if 2 3in areo's would be enough port for two 8 in subs would be tuned to 31hz need input ASAP

Does anyone know a formula that can be used to calculate the optimal box volume and tuning frequency for a particular subwoofer using the T/S parameters given by the manufacturer?

I have a phoenix gold ti 12d and i'm wanting to build a 2.75 cu/ft SQ box tuned to 25hz. which are the specs. that site recommends for it. i have a mtx te 1501d that will be powering the sub in my 08 4dr toyota tacoma. i'm not the greatest with math and formulas so any help to make this buildup as painless as possible would be great. thank you

Hi guys, I will be building the pre cut enclosures I calculated under RE enclosure calculator but there are a few things I would like to verify. I would like to tune the box between 33-35Hz @ 1.8-2.0 cubic ft. However, I just read that the RE calculator is not accurate. So I searched and found this website Enclosure Volume Calculator (EVC) and made the following calculations: Box Width 23 Inches Box Height 15 Inches Box Depth 15 Inches Material Thickness 0.75 Inches Number of Drivers 1 Total Total Port Volume 258.188 Inches3 -----> see calculations below: Port Width 13.5 Inches Port Height 1.5 Inches Port Depth 12.5 Inches Driver Volume …

Ok, so I have a 3.3 total cuft box as a center console and i cannot reach over to the other side of the truck to roll down the window/unlock the door. (no power windows/locks sucks) I hear if you add poly fill to an enclosure, the enclosure behaves as if it is larger.. So I was thinking build a smaller box, but add polyfill to make it seem larger. So in the end, I will not have sacrifice output with a smaller box. If this is possible, about how much air space could polyfill potentially account for?

Well I dont know were this falls into but my brother wants to change were his Soundstream BX-10 remote is I took a few pics of his dash and pretty much the interior so you guys can give us some ideas. It is a like an epicenter but not the original not an amp remote.I also want to know if you can take apart the box were the knob is and make it that"custom look"

Hey, I have a whole trunk to fill on a Impala 1972. I plan on either getting (4) 12 BTL or (2) 15 BTL. What do you guys suggest for this trunk and setup? I have seen 4 12s in a straight box going across but dont know if these require more space. Maybe have two on either side in an arrow up formation, speakers facing the rear trunk. ( ^ ). I plan to build it square ported and have an appeal once done.

just started my new build for my fiance's brother the box will be for 2 jl 10w3v3's

I have a honda accord 99 with a trunk vent (8"x3" slot) behind the paneling on the driver side. I notice the other day that there was a lot of air leaking through there when the bass note hits. Would sealing this up help with spl and is this bad for the car? My box is in the trunk sub and port facing back. Just wanted to know if anyone had this problem and what did you do to it?
