im gonna be building a dual 15" type R box. alpine suggests 2.0cu ft to 3.5 cu ft. I will be pushing it with a brutus 1500D. What sized box should i use and how would i tune the box? I would like it to be tuned to about 35hz. First time box builder but im extremely handy so i shouldnt have any problems just need some advice from the pros in hur :-)

oh yea for a 2.0 cu ft box the port has to be 3.75" x 3.75" per 15 or equivalent area in a slot or whatever. where should i place this at and does it matter where i place it. Anymore adivce u can give me would be helpfull

2 cuft is way to small for a single 15 ported. I'm not completely sure but i would build a 8 cuft box, or 2 4 cuft boxes.

that web site has calculators to help you tune the box.

Not much, 7 should be fine. Just make sure your port is large enough so u dont get port noise. And make sure u use the subsonic on the 1500d.
