Hey, I had a 15" SEXXX in 4 cubes tuned to 35 with a MTX 81000D pushin it. I loved the bottom end performance but its movin out to make way for a XXX. A friend wants to take it off my hands, and Im going to build him a new box to fit. In the current box its plenty loud for him, but he wants...

Nothing against table saws but unlike circ saws, not all table saws are the same. Dont tell me youre gonna buy a $99 Ryobi benchtop table saw and get clean cuts out of it. You cant guide a 4X8 piece of MDF on one of those things without 6 extra hands. A professional table saw is a different...

yeah but this is for a double baffle, the subs are going to sit flush, and its going to get sprayed, so I need the edges and corners to be perfect.

Does anyone have any advice for perfect cutouts for L7's? I was thinking of drilling out the corners and then using my router, maybe a jigsaw, but just wanted to see if anyone has a better method. thanks in advance!

is that a 12 or 15? I put my 15 in the other day, oh my ... anyways, its in a 4 cubes tuned to ~ 34 hz. 2 rectangular ports 3*7. The Sq seems pretty decent, I need alot of sound deadening before I can give a better review. But its hella loud!

Just curious, I noticed some areas on my box where the liquid nails looks like it cracked. I didnt know liquid nails was pliable. Does that affect the box's strength, or is it just like a surface crack? Anyways, Im goin with a new box, when I go to Home Depot to get materials is there anything I...

youre gonna need another optima mang!

thanks for the info red. building the box is the easy part, at least Im good at that lol. I just dont want to put alot of hours into it just to throw it away because of a little 'chuffing.

I have one more question though.. in order to keep velocity under 30m/s, the port must be made bigger, thus longer. But shouldnt the port be as short as possible also? How do you compromise? My box is going to be 4 cubes tuned to 34 hz. If I use 2 3*7 ports, velocity peaks at ~ 25m/s (1000...

when calculating port air velocity, I understand that (by clicking the signal tab in the project window) you have to enter the drivers RMS value, but I dont understand why they ask for series resistance. Why would that affect port velocity? For instance, my sub is a D4, but Im going to wire it...

why would you want a 9 cube box with no bracing sepatare the chambers, it could use the support and then some

hell yeah Ill take two. I need some nice mids. What kinda power do they take?

lol reminds me of the time I sent them my Tempest to get reconed. They emailed me back 4 months after I sent it to them.

Im a little stumped, I really want 2 slot ports that share the top wall of the enclosure, something like this _____________________ ....l___l top of box l___l thing is, Im not sure about the building process if they were to bend alongside the back wall, thats why Im trying to kep them as...

hey did you put those subs in a sealed or ported box. They should have been put in a ported box. Why would the sub start playing when he pushed the cone? $435 for a amp hookup, pssh I would take those blown subs and throw them through that shops window. No way they should be in business...
