Bronze Member Username: NkknutsonPost Number: 77 Registered: Dec-06 | come one guys more ideas please top or back of the box!!!! and when you make the box do you need to use wood glue on the port pieces too? i can figure out how to wood glue on the bottom of everything but when i put the top on i can only figure out how to glue where i can reach through my sub hole and port hole. |

Silver Member Username: Langless28Boston, MA Post Number: 657 Registered: Dec-04 | something that would help lessen any port noise would to buy some 2.5 inch pvc and make little "half pipes" in the corners of the ports and fill it in with epox or resin and then remove the pvc when it dries. sand and your good to go |

Post Number: 10522 Registered: Jul-05 | u mean u want to know how to assemble the box ? assemble all the other pieces 1st & then u put on the top/bottom last making sure every piece lines up properly yes glue ALL parts together if u want some basic box ideas http://www.diysubwoofers.org/ or www.the12volt.com site has step by step instructions & pix ...... |
Bronze Member Username: NkknutsonPost Number: 79 Registered: Dec-06 | no i understand how to assemble the box i just don't know how to glue that middle port on the top, because like you said assemble everything than more than likely ill add the bottome and glue everything but when i add the top i wont be able to reach some of the top parts that i need to glue. plus chime in on where to put the sub on top or facing the back. |

Post Number: 934 Registered: Dec-06 | Lol if I ever got a car sub I would probably tune it at like 2 hz with a sub that has a fs of like 20,000 That would be stupid! It'd be more like a tune of 15hz with 2 TC sounds LMS 5400's HEHE. Yeah I've heard higher and lower tunes and I've found I prefer extra low tunes. Sorry I'm bored. |
