Posted March 27, 200817 yr I've got two Havoc 15's for my extended cab ford ranger. I want to build a box for them but I'm debating between ported and sealed. I know ported can sound good, but there are certain advantages a sealed box will always have. (such as transients) I listen to primarily rock music.I have about 8cu ft available, and two 15s. How should I go about designing or choosing a box? Edited March 27, 200817 yr by creyc
March 27, 200817 yr I'd recommend sealed...really, you probably would have been better served by getting one 15" and putting the money elsewhere
March 27, 200817 yr Author I'd recommend sealed...really, you probably would have been better served by getting one 15" and putting the money elsewhere Call me stubborn (or a total bass head) but I can't for the life of me come to grips with the idea that ONE 15 will give me what I'm looking for, sealed of all things!Truly, a part of me hopes you're really right and running 2 will be way overkill Ask any of my friends, my motto and reasoning for building-in 'excess' is simply: "you can always turn it down". It's honestly not a bad reputation to have!So if 1 sealed is plently, 2 sealed should be perfect. Now AA lists from 1.8 cubes up to IB for the 15 Havoc. How should I decided how big to make my box?
