Posted October 11, 200816 yr Hey everyone, I am going to build a box for 2 Fi Q 10's and I would like to know your opinion on the best bex cubic feet and design wise, to get the absolute best SQ, and should I have it sealed or vented? If vented, how should it be tuned for the best SQ. I want these 10's to have a really, Tight, Bass sound.
October 11, 200816 yr Author sounds good, and when you calculate cubic feet inside the box you subtract the thickness of the mdf twice dont you?
October 11, 200816 yr how about lets all forget that you asked the last question and think about it for a while.
October 11, 200816 yr Author how about lets all forget that you asked the last question and think about it for a while.That's what I was told, Sorry for asking, to double check. I'm sure everyone here was born with the knowlege of building box's, and calculating cubic feet inside the box.
October 11, 200816 yr Author how about lets all forget that you asked the last question and think about it for a while.I will even give you the benefit of the doubt, after looking back to my wording, how I posted the question may have confused people.What I meant by subract by 2 was 1 cubic foot is = too 12x12x12 each 12 or variable representing height, depth, and width. Now if your sub specified that you need 1 cubic ft of airspace you would have to calculate this into the design. Example. If you use 1/2'' MDF and built the box 12x12x12 the (Outside) of the box (what you can see and feel) will take up 1 Cubic foot of airspace. Yet the (Inside or Chamber) would only be around .77 or so cubic ft of airspace (inside) the box. So when I asked to subtract by 2 I meant the width of the MDF per variable. So I can maybe see where you might have not understood my question, maybe? Anyways, I believe this is the correct way to find the (Inside) airspace, If not, let me know how, this is just how I was told to calculate it.ThxJosh
