Im building a box for a single RE10. The air space required is on this site http://www.reaudio.com/html/subs.htm I am wanting to build it so that the box is tuned at 32-35hz. Any ideas of where i can find some box designs fitting in this catagory or anyone got a design they want to get rid of? It is going in the trunk of a 92 grand-am of a friends. Thanks

They have designs up there.

Just use the SQL one and reduce the "A" dimension to achieve your overall volume wanted.

I take it you want a ported enclosure since you specified a tuned frequency and it's really too low to be bandpass.
any enclosure calculator on the web will give ya the specs you need.
try http://www.bcae1.com

just remember for that RE, you want to use two sheets of 3/4" MDF for the face to support the weight of the driver, and cross-brace the box internally, subtracting the cross bracing material displacement from the internal volume of the enclosure to compensate.. that way you get the right net volume after bracing and driver displacement are added in.

I theink hes talking about the 10 RE sub from Resonant Engineering.

You wont need to brace or double the front baffle if this is the case. The sub weighs like 6 Lbs
