then you don't want sealed.
USUALLY with boxes: sealed=more for SQ, ported=more for SPL

no killin' necessary. Look in the sticky up there and see if there's already a box size for whatcha want.

3.00 cu. ft / 43 hz tuning / 11.5x2.5x14.5 port. per THIS

can u make it easy on me and tell me what sise for the whole box.

[newyorkjets00]

can i just build that box thats in the link and drop my subs in it.

[newyorkjets00]

person who had them before me had them in a single sectioned 4 cubed box tuned to 40 Hz.

[djman37]

can i just build that box thats in the link and drop my subs in it.

yep.
It is 2.9cf tuned to 33. Memphis says 3cf tuned to 43hz MIN for two subs.
That link was found by looking at the PDF I found on Memphis' site, then going to the box plans sticky and looking for a plan that matched the cubic feet requirement. then I clicked on the thumbnail moe provided and waaalaah.
I was hoping you'd do it yourself.

that looks kinda hard to build...i never built a L ported box...

[goonandbuck]

if you're that inexperienced have someone build you a box because a box will make the difference between sounding like **** and bumping and if you want loud get mclass subs

From your first suggestion then, go ahead and build a sealed enclosure and see if you like it. The volume may be good for now...the SQ will be better anyway. Down the road, and after you've built a box, you can start on another enclosure while you have the sealed in your car.
