SPL & SQ / Fabrication

Would this be a good box for 2 xcon 12s running a crescendo bc 2000d I'm planning on running it at 2 ohms because I'm hoping to run stock alt with an extra batt. in the rear for now. I was hoping to run sub and port forward sealed from the trunk so my max height is 18 and width is 32 and that's real tight. If someone else has done this I would love to see pics for reference. http://i1257.photobucket.com/albums/ii511/trpkkd/accordbox.png

I need a good set of box plans drawn up i have no problem building them.....just a noob at designing them i have all the t/s parameters ect... im really looking for a burp box i alreay have a daily box that does decent numbers on the TL ....just need something designed for the TL....Let me know if you can help me out. Thanks....

Can anyone help me design a ported box for 2 RE 8's? Needs to be 1 cube, around 32 hertz... I just don't know how to figure out the Port Lenth (want a slot port), the external demensions (with port displacement), and so on... Any help would be great... Oh, it's not vehicele specific, just your basic retangular box... -BW

I've been to one spl comp and it was not even a real event, just a thing where people could get on the mic's (and audiocontrol mics at that ). I live in seattle and can not find a SINGLE spl comp anywhere near here. It seems like they are all out east. Around here we have Adire and Audiocontrol as well as Sounddomain.com / cardomain.com and other names that are getting somwhat big so my question is, why no comps around here???? -aaron

I have been running 2 12" zcons for little over a year. 6 cubes 38hz 80cuin of port area. drivers side port all facing into cabin spray foam sealed of family car. trunk build. still have to load kids in back seat. seats fold down. Always been run at 1 ohm. I was using a saz3500v1. when I built that box and tuned it. I recently bought a B2 M1s to run on these subs. 7500w @ 1ohm. with the power increase I was looking for any help with what the new box would require as far as net volume. Looking for help????? suggestions???

I lined my box with fiber glass and mat, and it came out very bumpy, tried to smooth it out and did an ok job at removing some. My question is how smooth does it have to be, does it affect the over all sound pressure.

i will have 2 or 3 amps in my truck to power my speakers. I want to remove them from under the rear seat and build some type of mounting device for them. i have an 8 cubic foot box for my SP4 - could i mount the amps on the side of this box or on some wood attached to this box OR would the vibrations be less than ideal for my amps?

I would like to know where I can get some MDF for a temporary/test enclosure I plan to build, I don't care how cheap or low in quality it is, since this will only be a test enclosure, I live in southern wisconsin, if you know of any stores here or any online shops that are cheap let me know. This will be for my 15" xcon for a temporary sealed enclosure for now, and after I get it in its new enclosure I will use this box for future testing purposes. i did do a quick search through the forums and I got zero results, kinda weird.

i have a 2005 tahoe with two orion hcca 15.2 and want to build a box like the one steve meade has for is 4 18's here a couple of links...sorry dont know how to put picks up https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&docid=x6V8eu8o53qyjM&tbnid=EQYYPTVbyxj2eM:&ved=0CAUQjRw&url=http%3A%2F%2Fstevemeadedesigns.com%2Fhome%2Fmemberbuilds_5.php&ei=Js_tUumTLOqe2QXA8oHYDg&bvm=bv.60444564,d.b2I&psig=AFQjCNEvJXWf_OhHZbJlaEYPPEtNZET1bA&ust=1391403157918733 http://cs12828.vk.me/u109393749/video/l_a71dab0b.jpg

Pods are done... they didn't turn out to bad, here is the pics.... ohh yah they sound a ton better http://www.project04.net/gallery/main.php/.../pods%20001.jpg http://www.project04.net/gallery/main.php/.../pods%20002.jpg http://www.project04.net/gallery/main.php/.../pods%20003.jpg http://www.project04.net/gallery/main.php/.../pods%20004.jpg

Here is an idea i am throwing around for my 99 neon... 5.25 component set up front for the hi/hi-mids have 6x9 holes in the rear deck, but will enlarge them slightly to encompass 8"(7.25 cutout) midbass drivers 50-200 hz response.. then have 2 12's in aported box in the trunk Is this a sound design to put the midbass on the rear deck?? I have read numerous things about running mono for the rears/keep away from highs back there cuz it moves the center image backwards types of things... Also is this going to be terrible placement for the "free air" midbass speakers on the rear deck having their back wave interfering with the sub output... (really the rear deck is the only p…

i got test tones from 20 hrtz to 85 but i fail to find a sweep for free. any ideas?

ALright, I'm getting to the point of install. I am curious about the whole gain knob deal. I have always just turned it up to where it sounded good, and went on. I remember reading something about matching low level volts? So, anyway, my headunit is a whopping 2volts. - that goes to my Phoenix Gold EQ, which has a built in line driver, adjustable from 1 to 8 volts. Then, back at my Memphis amps, they are able to recieve between 1 and 4 volts. SO..gimmie a run down on how to get this stuff adjusted properly..or is there a link that could tell me and save somebody the typing?

Starting a box for a friend tomorrow. He has 2 12in kicker cvr's in a prefab box with the ports stuffed with towels because it's way to small to be ported. Lol I will be building a 5 cu box tuned at 32hz. Dimensions are 36w x26d x15h, port is 5in x 13.5in and around 26 in long. It will be 3/4, double baffled and 1in dowel braced. He doesn't have much power JLa1400 (500rms) Should be good for when he can get some real subs and a bigger amp. It's going in a Cadillac deville trunk rear facing. Opinions are welcome., although after spending about a hour making the cut sheet I am pretty set on it, lol. Can post pics during build if anyone wants to see it, should be a huge i…

Are there any SQ comps that are regularly in NC? I see that a lot of you SQ guys are from VA, where do you usually compete? Any local organizations or the like? I have never competed before, so I would appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction. While I'm at it, what are the different SQ classes, and their requirements?

What would be considered too small for a round port (in terms of diameter)? I'm trying to design a ported box (0.7 ft^3 ~ 24hz) w/ round ports for an RL-I 8" and the only diameter port I can use w/ a reasonable length is less than 1.5"...won't this create noise? I just can't imagine using a 1" port for that monster... What's the rule of thumb y'all?

Hey guys. Its time to try something new. Not sure what will happen to the sound if i tune my box higher or make it larger. I'm 1.5^3 tuned to 28hz now. love the flat response curve and helps the sub sound really low. What would happen to sq if I make the enclosure larger like 2.0^3 and/or tune higher? TIA

alright, so i have a FI Bl 15" with, cooling,daily, universal d1. I am planning on building a new box because my current box only takes up 1/2 of my trunk which is in fact bad. Due to the trunk and how it is made there are two metal bars coming across the length of my trunk, and it makes my sub box aprox. 1 foot away from my trunk lid, which i think lessens the well initial BOOM, when i had my MTX JH55's in they sounded much louder when they were pushed back so i thought well "why the hell not build my own box" here are the specifications, i even made a pretty picture for you guys. ports from eD. (made in Google Sketchup!) Ideas, comments, suggestions? (some insight from…

Where is a cheap place to get some 3" Aeroports ? I saw them for $13.88 on this site, just wondering if there are any places that are cheaper. Its gonna be about $35 shipped for 2, which isnt the most appealing thing ever

Ok, so my buddy does a real decent job at painting and can do pretty decent job at detailed pictures. So what i wanna know is how can i get this type of painting onto an enclosure. Its made with MDF wood 3/4" thick if that means anything. Now im also trying to figure out how to paint this wood so it will look smooth and as less like wood as possible, which means if that cant be done then the detailed painting may not work. Anyways what i want to know is what can i do to the surface, that wont ruin sound quality, that i can paint primer or whatever onto in order to do this paint job to it? im at a complete stop here so any links or anything will help me out at this point. …

I want to check some numbers but Im not sure if there are any trustworthy sites.. Got any?

i designed a new banner for 08' i used car show twice ill fixx it later

Alright, so I'm planning a build for my S10 reg cab, and need help designing the box. It's going to be 2 SA-10's in a 2 cu. ft box net, ported, tuned to 33-35 Hz. Also powered by a SAZ-1500. My max dimensions are 50"L, 22"H, 9"D bottom, 5"D top. I made up a box using the torres box calculator, but I was having problems with the port. I'm planning on using aeroports, but they were needing to be too long for that tuning in a small box. Not sure what diameter, and how many I would need. If anyone can help me out I'd appreciate it!

i was wondering if anyone could help me with some plans for a box, for my 15" its an alpine type-r. i no, not the greatest. but its my 1st sub. the opening on my trunk is about 41" by 18" also i have a picture, if that helps.

Here is the car and the current sub : He's planning adding one more woofer and competing in espl, something similar to bass race (track chosen by the judges). Basically, I'm looking for some ideas on woofer and port orientation from the ones that have some spl experience Right now his top score is 144db @ 36hz, db-drag style, using a single 3kw Ground Zero 1.3000 and one 15inch 4hp clone by Ground Zero (Plutonium 15). Final gear will be 2 subs and 2 Atomic 5000.1's. What port and woofer orientation ideas do you guys have ? Even some tips would be really nice
