Hi all,

First off, I need some box plans drawn up with cut sheet dimensions. Max exterior dimensions are 13" high, 5" Top Depth-11" Bottom Depth. I have 52" of outer length available, but that needs to include some clearance between the port and the cab wall (side-firing port) What is the most airspace I can get out of these dimensions if I want to tune to 30-35 hz? Box is being built for a Team-PSI built TC9, and I'd like to get around 25 sq.in. or port area. I will also be using 1/2" MDF for the back and bottom plates to give some extra clearance for the sub magnet.

Second, I'll be starting a new build soon, and could use some help. If any Wisconsin members within a couple of hours of Wiscosnin Dells are interested, there will be plenty of free food, etc.

If anyone is interested in either proposition, hit me up on this thread, through a PM, e-mail, or MSN messenger.

e-mail and messenger address: hintzyboy@hotmail.com

Thanks,

Aaron

I'd be glad to make you a design, but I won't be able to drive to wisconsin to help with the build. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

PM me if you're interested in a design.

is this for a regular cab s10?

with those dimensions you can get about 2ft^3 internal volume before port and sub displacement.

i just designed one for my buddie's s10, and i managed to get 1.85ft^3 tuned to 35Hz with 21in^2 of port.

he had to make a notch for the center console, and lost a click, though.

he's thinking about buying some 8's to get his leg room back.

yup, reg. cab. No center console, just one sliding bench seat. The seat is already moved up as far as I will allow. I'm not willing to give up the comfort and safety just for a little extra sound.

If it helps. I can go up to the window like the box pictured in the s10forum thread, but I'd have to have a couple inch indent on the passenger side so I can mount my amps.

I'd rather have the amps on top of the box though, so I can hide the wires easier.

Just an idea, what Airspace and tuning would this box get me?

Outer Dims:

48" L

13" H

5" Top Depth

11" Bottom Depth

4x6" Square-O port

-1/2" MDF used for Back plate, Bottom Plate, and port sides. 3/4" MDF for the rest.

if you went with those dimensions you get 2ft^3 net internal.

for his i did a 3"x7" port 21" long to get to 1.85ft^3 @ 35Hz

if you go with a bigger port and want to tune that low your net volume will be lower.
