Silver Member Username: J_baby15Kentucky Post Number: 267 Registered: Feb-06 | Well it just started raining, so I'm takin a quick break. Hopefully I'll get done today, but heres what ive got done so far. Not all screwed together yet. Liquid Nails!!! OH YEA!!  No top or ports.  Port and dividers set in.  Test fit in trunk. Theres is supposed to be plastic trim in front of the box, but i had to take it off the trunk to squeeze the box in.  Front of box.  In the trunk with top on.  The SSIs.  |

Silver Member Username: J_baby15Kentucky Post Number: 274 Registered: Feb-06 | I've built a couple before, nothin real complicated tho. I havent turned it up too loud b/c i just finished it and dint wanna wake any neighbors, but it sounds good. I had to kick it into my trunk b/c it would barely fit. LoL. I doubt its coming back out without being disassembled. Heres some pics of my back deck w/ the port....It used to have a 12" sub in it. Looking Up from the trunk.  Looking thru the back glass.  Looking thru from back seat.  |

Post Number: 7829 Registered: Jul-05 | nice looking box man - but i must ask , it appears 2 me from ur pix that ur box is almost touching the tailgate , if it is then how do u expect 2 get any resonating bass ? , cause it seems 2 me like it will rattle the hell outta ur trunk lid/tailgate with it being so near ........ |
|
Silver Member Username: J_baby15Kentucky Post Number: 280 Registered: Feb-06 | It just looks like that, its about 8-9inches from the back of the trunk, but its only about 5inches from the top of the trunk. |
|
Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 7831 Registered: Jul-05 | er ok - its hard 2 judge distance in a pic like that u need 2 seriously deaden ur trunk if u already havent done it as yet - also try facing box 4ward too when ur done 2 see which sounds better 2 u .... |
|
Silver Member Username: J_baby15Kentucky Post Number: 284 Registered: Feb-06 | If you look in the 3rd pic of my port then you can see the Dynamat Xtreme on the back of my trunk, I've already done all that before i put in my last system. I doubt i get that box back out easily, i had to kick it into the trunk, it was a tight fit. |

Silver Member Username: John_washNashville, Tennessee Post Number: 292 Registered: Dec-05 | nice box Jordan |
|
Silver Member Username: J_baby15Kentucky Post Number: 285 Registered: Feb-06 | Dammit. My box is about 2 1/2 inches too wide in the back to slide it back as far as I want it to go. Which means I'm going to have to do this to get it to fit right. I'm going to have to cut off where the green lines are.  |

Gold Member Username: Tdeaton1021Near Tampa, Florida USA Post Number: 2959 Registered: Sep-04 | that will change tuning, just remember that. |
|
Silver Member Username: J_baby15Kentucky Post Number: 286 Registered: Feb-06 | I know...but it'll only take it down to about 2.6per chamber and i think thatll put the tuning around 37hz instead of 35. That shouldnt make too much of a diff. i dont think. I could always add a couple inches to the port to get it bcak to 35hz. |

Gold Member Username: B101Queen City, NC USA Post Number: 2841 Registered: Sep-05 | NICE box, how is it wangin??? also how thick is that wood?? |
|
Silver Member Username: J_baby15Kentucky Post Number: 294 Registered: Feb-06 | Wood is 3/4" MDF. Sounds good, but i think itll be louder if i turn it the other way, i think the subs are too close to the edge of the trunk and not enuf sound is gettin through. i only have about 1000rms goin to them, so they're only gettin like 500 each. Sounds nice tho. |
|
Silver Member Username: J_baby15Kentucky Post Number: 296 Registered: Feb-06 | DAMN IT!!!! Heres whats left of my box! Time for another, unless this one can be repaired.    |
|
Silver Member Username: ZepcoeTN Us Post Number: 315 Registered: Apr-06 | dude that sucks id make another box but this time make it a lil small to account for your trunk space and air flow |
|
Gold Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 3963 Registered: Oct-05 | make a box a smaller and put 2-4 of these in each chamber. it will take up less space inside so you can have a smaller box.  |
|
Silver Member Username: ZepcoeTN Us Post Number: 317 Registered: Apr-06 | what is the advantage/ disadvatages to having round ports or long square ports? |
|
Silver Member Username: J_baby15Kentucky Post Number: 298 Registered: Feb-06 | Round ports take up less space in the box i think. Therefore you can make the box smaller and still have the same amount of cu.ft.(Chadlee told me). I think I'm going to get 2 4" flared and make a new box. O well... we got out of school for summer today, so I'll have plenty of free time. |
|
Gold Member Username: B101Queen City, NC USA Post Number: 2857 Registered: Sep-05 | damn, look like something ate away the top... all this with 500rms each???  << thats why I was askin how thick was that box.. lol |
|
Silver Member Username: J_baby15Kentucky Post Number: 306 Registered: Feb-06 | The reason it looks like somethin ate away is b/c the top cracked, then I had to try and get it off, and I had to pry it off b/c i used plenty of LN to glue it. and i just realized I didnt post a pic of the top after I took it off. Damn it. LoL. I would forget the best one. Anyways I tried to fix it, but it isn't near as loud now b/c nothin went back together right, and i had to caulk a few gaps. O well...I'm making another soon, this time with some aeroports. |

Silver Member Username: J_baby15Kentucky Post Number: 307 Registered: Feb-06 | I'm not sure if its really 500rms each, I was just guessing. the amp is a Soundstorm 2000.2(cheap). but, I'm just using while a friend is out on a boat working. Its supposed to be only 4ohm stereo stable, and put out like 500rms per channel, but i wired it to 1ohm mono and it blew the fuse after 1 hit. Then i wired it to 2ohm on each channel and it sounded pretty good, I just kept the gain about 3/4 adn it was poundin. Not really sure how many watts. |
|
Silver Member Username: J_baby15Kentucky Post Number: 327 Registered: Feb-06 | I'm bout to build a new box 2moro. Prolly going to be about the same tho, but is there any advantage to having the subs in separate chambers? or should i just make them in the same this time b/c I'm going to have to make the box a little smaller. |

Bronze Member Username: NorthomahaPost Number: 66 Registered: Mar-06 | hey can you send me a drawing with all of the dimensions on your first box becuase I have two TSXs and i need to build a box for them. my email is reminc70@ops.org thanks alot |
|
Silver Member Username: J_baby15Kentucky Post Number: 328 Registered: Feb-06 | couldnt email it, but heres a drawing. The box is tuned to 33hz. the port is 15x2 adn 21" deep.  |
|
Bronze Member Username: NorthomahaPost Number: 70 Registered: Mar-06 | do you know what i would have to do to get that tuned to 36 hz, i imagine it would involve the length of the ports but i dont no if it would be less or more and how much |
|
Silver Member Username: J_baby15Kentucky Post Number: 330 Registered: Feb-06 | Make the port about 16.5" long instead of 21" and itll be around 36hz. |
