4 fi bl 18s

[tholley 10+ year member]

Hey I have never designed a ported box before and was wondering if there was someone that could design it and tell me the deminsions.

I will be using half inch mdf board and 4 bl 18's tuned @ around 27-30.

Thanks!

.5" inch MDF=bad...use atleast one layer of .75"

But I might be able to give you a hand

I know what you are thinking. This will be the largest system I have ever installed.... all this is going into an 08 tahoe.

edit: I have not ordered the board yet so whatever you recommend.

Thanks~

you will want more than 1/2 "

3/4 in most areas. and double that up on the top at least

How would one layer of 1" work?

very well, but 1" mdf is a pain to work with in 4x8 sheets....that ish is heavy!

Ok well I will go with 3/4 I have never worked with 1" before. But could someone set this up for me? Any help would be appreciated. I am hoping to have the parts ordered as soon as possible, hopefully next week.

first they would need the max dimensions that your willing to use.

 

[tholley 10+ year member]

4 feet from side to side 3 and a half foot from front to back and 2 feet give or take some top to bottom. There is some leeway in the top to bottom measurement I want to be able to make a slide to put on top of the box so I can still carry groceries and stuff without damaging the box or subs.

Thats 24 ft cubed with a 2 foot heigth isn't it?

 

[Pioneer~Saturn 5,000+ posts]

It should be a good 20 cubes for 4 18's...if not more

You're not fitting 4 18's with 13 cubes with or without port and driver placement.

Double the 3/4 sheets all the way around.
