03 RE XXX 12 Box Design - No Experiance

[LGK 10+ year member]

no designing or building skills.

looking for a basic sealed design for an 03 re xxx 12 w/ max output for 300watts.

old lady thought the type-r 15 w/ 600watts 3.5cuft slot port tuned @ 35hz was way too much, so were toning it down until i get my new car and do the real install.

is this gonna cost me money?

lemme know what's up.

You're going to run an XXX off of 300w? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

i was waiting for this kinda reply ;/

for the time being yes.

she wants bass, period. not a lot. it's all i got atm.

the 300watt setup will be in her 08accent hatchback

and this will be going into an older magnum/tiburon once I decide on a vehicle and after I buy a 2-3.0k amp.

Gotcha, most of the guys on here will charge you for a design. Send SPY a PM he's a great guy and knows his shit.

No point in having that xxx if your not going to use it to its full potential. Ill trade you a jl w3 that will work awsome in sealed box of 300w?

jk I would go ported and at least rms to the sub. Because going from a type r to a xxx isint going to be any quiter lol so might as well go all the way and keep the gains down when the girl isint in the car.

O my bad...... I feel you on the money. If it needs to be sealed then just find the specs for the sub and go from their. I dont think you will need a bunch of bracing if your only going to run 300w. So go with 3/4 mdf and some good wood glue, and some 1 5/8 screws. They have tones of sites to help you on cf.

I'd be willing to dish out like $10... I just can't justify forking out a good heap of money for a simple sealed 300watt design ;d no bracing/supports or anything fancy

thanks for the info tho

Ill do it for free send me the measurements for the max size that will fit in the car.

thnx spark, i might just say **** it and slap together a throw away box since this is a totally temp setup.

sadly she thinks the reason her old car's engine siezed is because the 'subwoofer rattled something loose in the engine' because thats what the mechanics said lmao.

Thats gotta be a new one for me. lol
