Just a quick question.

Post by CaptainPioneer »

I have my 2 Eclipse SW6200's in my truck right now, but soon will be building the new box for my Camry to put them in... I totally forgot what the suggested Volume of the box should be per sub... I am obviously going to do 1 sealed box with a Divider in the center to separate the subs, but i think the reccomended size of the box for each sub is 2cuft.

Am I right ... here is the diagram via Eclipse's website

I was thinking about porting, but i am really liking the depth and sound of the sealed box. Im not looking for max spl rather decent sound quality in my Camry... I already know that the subs will most likely overpower my speakers so this will most likely set me down a road toward spending more and more money.

Unless Bill you think that the Porting will give me a better response and sound q in the trunk of my Camry.

its really your choice but ported can sound just as good and sometimes better than sealed. it really depends on the woofer.
