Will it work? stay tuned!!!

Doing some quick math shows me the enclosure is around 7.1 cu.ft. NET with a dismal port opening (only 42.5 sq.in. of port area). The port area isn't even equivalent to a pair of 6" round ports. However after subwoofer displacments the BL's would be running in around 6.7 cu.ft. with a port tuning in the 29hz area. So technically speaking, yes the enclosure should be alright to run the BL's in until you get another enclosure built for them. Remember though that when you increase the port area on the new enclosure that port length will have to be much longer as well to keep the tuning the same, or nearly the same. That means that a lot more internal volume is going to be used up by the port and the enclosure will have to get a bit larger to keep the volume where it needs to be.

Very disappointed in the mechman alt. 1st and LAST purchase from mechfem by me. 3 relatively important issues mechfem does not tell you: 1) The rear mounting bracket was too narrow by at least 3 mil. I had to bore out mounting holes to get bolts to finger start. That is terrible quality control for a $500 alternator. 2) One of the the stock mounting M10 bolts is about 3/8" too short for mechfem bracket.........blame Korea?? Don't you think the part time engineers at mechman could provide that bolt with the alternator? Nawww I guess the local ACE had me covered. 3) Stock alternator belt is too long. Again, very simple point of knowledge to pass along to the consumer. Correct new alt belt length is 1" shorter.

that first build reminds me of the setup that came in my envoy..... it didnt last long in there lol. nice to see fellow xterra owners doing some audio builds. i would say to address those apillars......try your hand at some glass.

I am a 1 sub kind of guy. I'd say go with the biggest one sub size. IA 21?

flexin the speaker penis.. such flex.
