Posted October 31, 200816 yr Okay, it's about time to put my Sundown SAZ 3000D to good use, I've finally settled on subs, they are Crossfire XP 15's that I will get for super cheap and they are high quality subwoofers: http://crossfirecaraudio.com/htdoc/cf_m01_product_05_xs.asp#. I have some dimensions worked out, I used the SSA Box Calculator and I believe it's all worked out, I just need help bringing the calculator measurements to life! http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/home/in...int=1&page=Can someone give me a hand on how to put that on paper so I can build it?

October 31, 200816 yr There is no dimensions there.You could use this one and it will make a cut sheet.http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/home/in...calculatorflash Edited October 31, 200816 yr by bromo

October 31, 200816 yr ye one of my freinds has a crossfire bmf 12 in a big sealed box, it sounds very good i was suprised, very good sq and can get pretty loud, flexes his car too
October 31, 200816 yr Okay, using 3/4" MDFHeight=16"Width=36Depth=30You dont really have enough room to do 15"s ported.
October 31, 200816 yr Author Okay, using 3/4" MDFHeight=16"Width=36Depth=30You dont really have enough room to do 15"s ported.They only need 6 cubes between them, and I plugged all that in and it was 7.1 cubes after displacement.

Max internal volume is 6.22 ft^3 and that doesnt include port or driver displacement. Edited October 31, 200816 yr by bromo

October 31, 200816 yr never mind I miss read your dimensions I read 23 instead of 30.What were you trying to tune it to? Edited October 31, 200816 yr by bromo
October 31, 200816 yr Author never mind I miss read your dimensions I read 23 instead of 30.What were you trying to tune it to?Relatively low, 30-32 Hz. It's a sedan, no no matter what it will mostly peak at 40-50 Hz.
October 31, 200816 yr If I am seeing things correctly now and Im not to tired you may have problems on placement of the subs.Heres what I got. The only real place to mount them is on the top of the box subs up port back situation if they fit there.
October 31, 200816 yr Author Do you think it will be a problem putting them on the top? With only 29.5" to work with?
October 31, 200816 yr You might be able to stagger them. Id have to check the subs dimensions and maybe break out the sketchup.

Thanks for all your help man, I appreciate it!No Problem. It looks like you should be able to stagger them. Those circles in the pic are 16" in diameter cause I couldnt find the outer diameter spec on the website so I just went with 16 to be safe.

I was still doing it on Sketchup, you are quick!
October 31, 200816 yr Author Almost forgot, you should add some bracing to the box also.HAHA, yeah. That's a must!
