August 25, 201114 yr you can find the prices here at the store. Here is a link directly to it so you dont have to click storehttp://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/store/categories/Sub-Woofers/SoundSolutionsAudio/DCON/If your more into SQ then id say a well built custom ported box or a sealed box would do, Goodluck with your purchase, iv heard great things about those dcons
August 25, 201114 yr Author i'm sorry i think we misunderstood each other. what i meant was i want you to build me a box for my dcon. u build subwoofer box right?
August 25, 201114 yr i'm sorry i think we misunderstood each other. what i meant was i want you to build me a box for my dcon. u build subwoofer box right?in youre locale you should be able to ask around to find a builder. Somewhere on these forums are specific plans for a dcon 10. You'd basically print the plans and take em to a builder .

I thought the same thing when I read the title.
August 25, 201114 yr Would help if you gave the max dimensions you're willing to give up in your trunk so Quentin can see what kind of room he has to work with.Just because a box is ported doesn't mean it's going to sound like ass. But of the flip side, just because a box is sealed doesn't mean it can't get loud. We can't automatically assume he needs a sealed box because he is "more into SQ".

But the max dimensions would be perfect for them to draft and build something for you. Although with a single 10 you probably wont be hitting near any of them anyways. Glad to see more ssa subs, can't wait for mine.

August 25, 201114 yr I have worked up three different options for you.1. sealed, my least favorite and personally would not do sealed for this sub. qtc .7 (flattest responce with most bass extension) .32 cubic feet with a f3 (3 db loss) @ 67 hertz. Using a larger sealed enclosure just results in a loss responce from above enclosure.2. best sq ported enclosure with qtc of .7 (flatttest responce with most bass extension) .56 cubic feet tuned to 38.5 hertz with a f3 (3 db loss) @ 38.5 herts3. typical daily ported enclosure 1.25 cubic feet tuned to 40 hertz with a f3 (3 db loss) @ 35 hertz and a 2 db gain @ 45 hertzAs long as you don't want 45 degree corners (which you'll never hear the difference anyway with enough port area) eigther ported box will be 115 plus shipping and the sealed box will be 90 plus shipping.
August 25, 201114 yr Admin I vote for option 3, but I personally would prefer a lower tuning. I think I have a phobia of tuning above 34hz.
August 25, 201114 yr tuning 34 hertz or lower will result in a saddle shaped responce curve from 40 to 100 hertz with a 1.25 db loss and no gain. Tuning to 40 herts will give a pretty flat responce down to 60 hertz with a nice little boost from 60 to 38 hertz. Because he wanted to save space I would go with a higher tuning. If space was not an issue a larger enclosure could easily compensate for the losses of a lower tuning. Edited August 25, 201114 yr by Audibel Customs

August 26, 201114 yr I agree, my Mids are crossed down to 55 hertz, I also like my subs in a .7 qtc ported enclosure with a f3 around 25-27 hertz but some woofers are just not designed for that.
August 26, 201114 yr Author i think i will use option 3. i dont need the 45 degree corner. do u still need me to give u the trunk dimension? if yes then i can give it to you on monday, but if not, then please just make it so that it will fit in my trunk without sacrifying too much space please. and also please give me info on how to make the payment and shipping is to 92630thanks Edited August 26, 201114 yr by artg75
August 26, 201114 yr Although it is a small enclosure if you can give me a Max height and max width I can make it as shallow as possible to save you a little trunk space. I will make a sketch-up of the enclosure once you approve the design I will send an invoice to your paypal. Once payment has cleared the enclosure will ship out within seven(7) business days

August 27, 201114 yr Author do you think the box will be bigger than this box? will it fit into the same space as the photo? i apologize for picture owner...http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v476/louski/DSC02348.jpg Edited August 27, 201114 yr by artg75
