Re: subwoofer enclosure plans, any good??

if that was a sealed box, lets say... thats only 1.8 cubes. Now, you need to account for port displacement, the peice of wood seperating the chamber, and woofer displacement. Since you're building a ported box. In the end, you're gonna end up with about 0.5 cubes (per driver) Not enough.

Not enough for two 8's, Let alone two tens.


Go sealed.

Re: subwoofer enclosure plans, any good??

sealed generally have lower output at lower freqencey, but if you're not looking break recored or be all out SPL i doubt you will be unsatisfied.
