Posted May 11, 201312 yr Got another box underway being built for an older for escort, 2 Sundown SD2-8 going in a ported box powered by a planet audio 3k. Stay tuned for pics
May 15, 201312 yr Author Heres where i'm at so far, it's about 6.9 cubic feet, 3" port, tuned at around 29 hertz give or take
May 16, 201312 yr Author Almost done, ill have finished picture tomorrow it does sound great im impressed for two cute lil 8's
May 18, 201312 yr Seems like a rediculous amount of box for two 8's . Be careful with too much power in that huge box..
May 18, 201312 yr Author It's what the trunk space called for, tuned at about 30 hertz isn't crazy power Seems like a rediculous amount of box for two 8's . Be careful with too much power in that huge box..

May 18, 201312 yr 7 cubes for 2 8s your free airing them. you will unload them.This.If you add about 4 more of them you would be doing ok.

May 18, 201312 yr ohh. well you should have done it differently, you are going to murder those subs if you leave them in that big of a box you could run a single 18 in that air space, or a pair of 15s or 3 or 4 12s lol or 6-10 8s looks good but your doomed to fail
May 18, 201312 yr Should consider either building a smaller box or more speakers for that box. Not sure how the planet audio 3k performs but isn't that a little steep for 2 of those 8's?
May 19, 201312 yr Author There is a plan for two more 8"s and the planet audio isn't really over kill
May 19, 201312 yr There is a plan for two more 8"s and the planet audio isn't really over kill it is with the airspace you have and the number of subs at this point. unless your saying that its output is no where near its rating, with two more 8s you will still have too much volume but it will help..... you seem resistant to take advice at this point... but you can take up some volume simply by using expanding foam.
May 19, 201312 yr I think he likes the box filling up the entire trunk area. I would make it sort of like a dummy box so that the box is that size on the outside but on the inside it is the correct volume for those subs (bigger outside, smaller inside). Like Jon said fill her up! Edited May 19, 201312 yr by BigGuy
May 19, 201312 yr Is this a joke, why would you do this? And if this isn't a joke please listen to everyone before you kill the subs.

I'm not being resistant i don't get on here much to check the forum i'm listening to everything people are saying
