nice enclosure design, have not seen to many like this, I know spl guys have their subs in and out alot, might be why i dont seee that alot....... so this is somewhat a walled grand am then, right? will the horizontal port, from the loading area, be restricted by the interior? i don't know too much on that. do you have alot of shows around you? spl soundofffs. are you wanting to compete full time? that Gary F. is probably on the right track, perhaps this will be a really sweet groundpounder

you are quick^^

hangs head down< sorry bud if it is any better for you, I am originally a cheese head by birth! chop

still wanting to your build pics or install, any vids? sorry for the jacking....

lived in Indy for 33 years, worked at the dome for 3 years, built the new stadium, and my ol' lady is the huge fan....... had to sport the ring for a second though, hell it wieghed as much as a que ball! lol.

man you really took a step in the right direction.....i am impressed where you are going with this. looks like it will be a sweet ride to cruise in once you are finished.

uh, the normal tunning is much higher for spl, it is not uncoomon to see 60 to 70 hz. perhaps by useing the search engine some, you can find some good reading on how to determine the frequency of your vehicle.... if someone was to attempt to help you in your goals, i beleive they will need more info from you. alot of testing will have to be done to zero you in on what works best ..... there is quite a bit to be discussed on what is your vehicle? what power do you have behind those SAZ-2000D's ? what are your spl goals? how much deadening have you done? your exact enclosure details and how it is situated in your vehicle will be important also. be prepared to answer 10 times the questions you ask.....it is sorta a science you know!? good luck

i like the overall box design, not sure if i am into the deadening on the box itself...... have to get back with you on that one, the gear you mentioned, the batcap, is that all the electrical upgrade? surely you got a couple of alts in there.... 8 12"s below the window line? is that like 2 cu ft per sub then? soooooooooo close to that 160 mark!!!!

this fellar right here is on to something.....^^^^^^^^^^ don't tease us, tell all of the details......every juicy little aspect

i am almost positive this is with the vehicle opened up....... waiting for them pics and vids tomorrow

uh, if that is the case, don't go with what chop said, it will sorta stand out!

we used 6" foam couch cushions, cut to fit for the cougars fenders, and you can find a roll of peel and seal at the hardware store for 15 bucks, it will cover a decent area for cheap, the expanding foam will be at a hardware store, sometimes you can find the ol' two for five deal, just ask one of the employees where it is at..... usually it is close to the insulation area, and the peal and seal is close to roofing material.....uh, the couch was in the alley? lol, them fenders are dead though bud, went from bang bang to thud thud...! Just saying don't be afraid to improvise...

so are you planning on the fans firing vertical? will they have obstructions placed on top at any time? i have seen some sweet installs incorporating a plexiglass top, with like 1" or so, air holes spaced across the entire surface, add a little lighting, couple of fans, you would be looking sharp. the idea of the above style is the fans will be inside the tray, faceing horizontally.....the heat has plenty of areas to rise out of there and the fans keep the air moving..... frosting the plex is sorta simple and is a easy cheat for future scratches, the combo of the lighting with the air holes and the frosted glass gives a nice look.

so this is like really good, but i am not sure if you know what you are doing, the box is missing the entire top! lol how many actual hours are in an enclosure of this quality?

I bought a 4 ft concrete cylinder at Lowe's I am thinking about doing some experimenting with it to see what I can get out of it. Some people call them sonotubes or something of that nature. glass that sonotube......

thanks bro.......... as soon as i get some cash together, ol' chop is going to do a box build!

you know we want pics and vids, come on now! good job

alright now sander, you do that work bro!!!! let's get that last wire ran, and build that sexy new box!

well , i thought i better point it out, i am still pretty green, but......................well i am glad he is moving on toward some build plans.

dang, lol, mine is just basically ugly.......you are right though , free is a good start.

we use to say where there is a beautiful babe that you would eat her arseho in a quick second, you will find that she is a pucking bitch that does not deserve to breath to some one else..... personally i vave been with my ol' lady for 23 + yrs. so been there, done that.

so you are at like 13.9 without displacement of port or sub .............. but , that still is not going to shrink it down that much..... you need to redesign that bad boy
