Post Number: 1678 Registered: Mar-07 | i norm would ms but the amp is gonna be under the "platform" the box is downfiring on and the sub is gonna be held by nuts and bolts so i need to connect 2 pieces of wire together i know i can solder them i just wanted something that is easy to disconnect when i need to |

Platinum Member Username: Nd4spd18Philadelphia, PA Post Number: 10056 Registered: Jul-06 | Sounds like quick disconnects is what you need.... can get them from radioshack.... or cheaper in large quantity online. http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2104020&x=9&retainProdsInS ession=1&y=8&numProdsPerPage=60 I use those on every subwoofer install so that the sub/box can be removed easily.... they push together and are tight enough they won't come apart on you. |

Gold Member Username: DeadrabitMarionville, MO Post Number: 1342 Registered: Jun-07 | if ur going to 33 then 5 6inch ports MIN! nothing smaller! i would go for 4 8" ports if u could. but i think 4" arrows are kinda out of the picture in this one |

Gold Member Username: DeadrabitMarionville, MO Post Number: 1350 Registered: Jun-07 | it depends on the xmas of the sub and what it is tuned to. he would get more out of it that way |

|
Gold Member Username: Surferdude9371Get loud or go home.... Post Number: 1690 Registered: Mar-07 | have an answer on what size i should use mark? |
|
Gold Member Username: JtownTexas Post Number: 3676 Registered: Mar-07 | scott s helped me with a similar design a while back. I had my sub firing down and two 4" aeros firing to the hatch. you should ask him what he thinks as far as tuning goes for an enclosure that size. like I said, I'll sell you mine, 35 shipped? p.s. why the h3ll is dBLK giving advice? |
