How much bracing would a sealed box of 1-1.5 cubes need and what would you suggest for a brace?

Just double baffle and call it good

What he said^^^^. Unless for some reason for stuffing something big in it (I doubt) you wont need much bracing.

A small sealed box shouldn't need any bracing.

That's stupid overkill

yeah as long as you are using 3/4 MDF or thicker than you dont need any bracing on that small of a box.

if its a square box you will be fine but if its thin and wide you may need bracing really depends on the box shape. if you have large flat areas there will be a need for bracing

It's kinda hard to get any panels long enough to need bracing while limiting the box to 1.5cubes.

A truck box could easily get 2-3ft long, which would need a brace.

the stronger the better. never too much bracing as long as it doesn't interfere with the space the speaker needs. i built a .7 cu/ft box and it needed bracing, i like overkill

Window-style bracing would be great....if you want to go a little overkill.

Aw hell wtf was I thinking. You should totally triple layer the entire box plus fully fiberglass the inside, like 9 layers, and then intertwine a dozen 1" threaded rods through that thang. Seriously bro that's how all the youtube know-it-alls, I mean pros do it.

This is for a .2ft^3 sealed box for a 6.5" sub, right?
