Box assistance? Made a couple designs, not a clue if they are right.

[imadreamer1226 10+ year member]

I really wanted to try to design my own box. However anything past plugging in dimensions is completely guesswork to me. The subs are the older re sx15s, being pushed with a crescendo 3k @ 2ohms. Going into the back of a dodge ram quadcab with the rear seats removed. Both designs are meant for subs forward pass side, port up drivers side. Think this might move some hair?

Any feedback, recommendations, is greatly appreciated. I really want to make one of these two designs work. I am able to pretty much change the length up to 60, the depth to 20, and height to 24.

One is a long slender box which the batteries will be underneath, and the amp rack on the front floor.

One is shorter, with a battery rack and amps being mounted next to the box.

What a PITA to copy paste this from the RE site, if there is any other box building applications that allow for an easy copy paste, please let me know.

Re is off by a bit. But not much. Many will say it's way off, but if you do the math to check it. You find it's pretty close. What is your goal? Kinda a big diff from 32-36. Also 8 cubes is pretty big for 1 15. More like for 1 18

I think this is for 2 15's. Go 32 if you're more interested in moving hair than numbers.

I vote tuning 36 (if necessary build an insert for your port to change tuning)

what's off on the re calc? I'm going to build a box right now using it.

It is for pair of 15s.

Still no direct answers to my question here. I was hoping for someone who has some knowledge of these subs, and knew what they sound good in. Please chime if you do!

Thanks!
