12" Axis enclosure help

[Gavriley2007]

well i am ordering a pair of quad coil 12" Axis's tomorrow and will be porting these in my wagon.... i used to run my old 15 sub up port back, should i do the same for 2 12's, or do i do sub back port back?

also these only need like 2 cubes or less right? tune to 30hz im thinking

anyone wanna do a design for me by any chance i would be grateful once the subs arrive i will build the box and start bumpin.

Max dimensions?

Id stick with subs up port back. AP recommends 1.2 - 2.1 cuft ported.

[Gavriley2007]

max dimensions is:

37" wide
21" deep
height isnt a problem especially with the enclosure these need shouldn't be too big

[Pioneer~Saturn]

Here's what I whipped up..

This will bring you to:

-2.13 cubes net
-tuned to 29.9Hz
-37.5 sq inches of port area

sub and port back, port cenetered between the woofers.. anywhere from 1.5-2 is ideal.. 30 is plenty low.. most music never goes under 40hz most, maybe 1 out of 10000 songs drop below 35hz..f3 should be around 26-28 with that aligment.... sub up port back does good for burping.. spreaing the woofers the width of the cabin helps pressurize the cabin as a whloe instead of tring to pressurize the dash...

[dcole18]

do 4.5 cubes, 30-32hz tuning, around 80-85 square inches of port, and give it lots O' powa :fyi:


you will thank me later

try a tad bigger :fyi:

[Pioneer~Saturn]

Alright, here's one for both of them...It isnt perfect because it isnt tuned as low as you wanted :(

But it comes to:

-2.12 cubes per sub, net
-39.375 sq inches of port area per sub
-Tuned to a hair under 33Hz

sry i didnt make it clearer it was for a pair, and yea SBeatz i ordered a pair, im thinking a vfl 500.1 is the future somewhere

[Gavriley2007]

at like 44lbs i should double baffle for sure right?

[Pioneer~Saturn]

I usually like a double-baffle with my subs or you could put some bracing on the back of the baffle and it'll do pretty much the same thing

[Gavriley2007]

what kind of material to brace this enclosure should i use? how many, where should i put em

wow what a *** i didnt even say thanks in the first post

Thanks alot man!

[Pioneer~Saturn]

Haha, no prob :D

And Id just use a couple 1"-1.5" wide pieces of .75" mdf running up+accross the inside of the face

[s Beatz]

Or just have Pioneer Build it:D

those quad 1's in 12's?

[dcole18]

that enclosure should work out very nicely

[Gavriley2007]

a couple people in the past day have told me to just run aero ports, and have no port noise, and it would sound better and probably be a hair louder

spy told me you box designers actually run a probgram to see what size works best and what not?

i just wanna know if i should just run 4" aero per sub and cut to my length for tuning

thanks members,
matt

[dcole18]

use the design posted up in this thread... it will work very well :fyi:

[Gavriley2007]

ok, and im gonna do sub up though, he said it would work just fine
