2 FI BL 12's.... NEED BOX HELP!!!!!

[Nsjabauanabagaoakddb3]

Going on a IA mono 20.1

2 FI BL 12"s

slot, square port.

flush mounted.

what size port and box? - i though around a 6" wide port and 7 cubes

should i double baffle and triple baffle the sub mounting side?

or

is is bracing all i need?

if so...

what type of bracing?

max dimensions are (this is including the space i need for 3/4 mdf [take into mind the baffeling as it subtracts from the numbers even more]):

width (driver side to pass side) - 40

depth (ground to roof) - 23

length (headlights to tail lights) - 20

If you plan on giving them their RMS wattage, stick to 2.25ft^3 each with a tuning in the lower 30's. Overall volume before sub and port displacements will be about 6ft^3. You may or may not have to double up the mounting baffle, just depends on how you have everything laid out.

how well do those BLs sound in the proper box ported as the OP stated ?

You're asking a very generic question lol.

thanks man

 

[Nsjabauanabagaoakddb3]

lol agreed... but i already drew it up on sketchup... gunna build it tomorrow... well see how it sounds

i put them in 7 cubes at 36 Hz. 6" wide port, triple baffled the mounting layer and doubled all the rest. its going to be a heavy ***** but solid. im going to skip on bracing because oh how my joints are set up. i think i will be fine with wood glue, pressure and a finish nailer. pm me your number and ill send you pics as i build it.

You put two strong 12s in a 7 cube box? Ripple city. Gonna sound like ish and be super boomy with an awful low end peak.

This. I personally wouldn't go over 4ft^3 for a pair. The thing that ***** about these low Q and Vas woofers is the need for a smaller box and a lot of power to get a decent response curve out of them while keeping output high. Granted, most people aren't looking for a smooth response if they're getting these kinds of subs.

4.5 cubes tuned to 30 hz with about 60 square inches of port.
