Well guys, i was gona purchase 2 RE SX 15s, but 2day i found a good deal on 2 cerwin vega vmax 15s that my buddy has for sale. My question is: i looked on their website to look at the specs of the speaker. On one part of the website i found the recommended ported enclosure to be 2 cubic ft. I looked on another part of the site and it recommended a 3.5 cubic ft box. Which size should i build? I will be picking up the speakers tomorrow. I will post pics.
I figured out the answer so im gona build a 3 cubic ft box per sub so that will be a 6 cubic ft box total. I have the design thanks to G3. I have the materials but im going out of town this weekend so i want start on it. I may get the pieces cut out this week and if i do, ill post pics. I should be picking up the subs this week also. I will post pics of those also.
When i build my new box, do i need to put the port in the middle of the box between the two speakers or on one end?
I think the port in the middle looks the best, i was just asking to make sure it didnt make any difference where i put it. Hopefully ill be starting this box next week and will post lots of pics.
He gave me the measurements and port size. When I get home, I will draw it out and post a picture of it.
Here is 2 designs i came up with. Yea i no these boxes dont look the same size, but im not very good with paint. This is just a sketch to get and idea. Which one do yall think is the best? The box is about 5.8 cubic ft with a 4"x16.5"x18" port.
Or i could do a box like the one in the bottom of this pic. I would just have to refigure the volume of the port.
well, i think the dimensions that G3 gave you is for a port on the side of the box, not the middle. you may have to ask him what the port walls 1 and 2 measurements should be if you want to put it in the middle.
I think this new system is going to knock pretty good. To power these subs, im getting a crossfire vr1000d, and red top battery, and do the big 3 upgrade. Im still not sure what all the big 3 consists of though.
