Im makin a box again

Post by Mithrandir »

Im plan on makin a large sealed box, so i dont have to get a better amp for my subs. They are infinity reference at the moment and only getting half their wattage in a 0.8 cubic foot box (ideal box for those subs) Would a 1.5 cubic foot sealed box let em work to their maximum potential without over excurting?

You do know that you aren't supposed to let your subs bottom out right?

here are my measurements

Height - 14
Width - 32
Depth - 16

Front - 14 x 32
Back - 14 x 32
Top - 14 1/2 x 32
Bottom - 14 1/2 x 32
Sides - 12 1/2 x 14 1/2

It will be about 1.5 cubic feet per chamber, hopefully that will be enough for em to work to their full potential

i am not sure on sealed boxes about if the measurement is off it will effect it greatly, but i do know it will on tuned boxes...

Once you start putting it together you will see. Unless all of the cuts are perfect, you will have gaps.

when you get wood cut at a place you always have them measure it and look for yourself...... i dont know if they will take it back or not since you have taken it home... but give it a try i guess...

If they are anything like Lowes, they will take it back.
