[QUOTE="brian84corvette, post: 8305536, member: 586635"] the problem with sub = loading. to properly have a subwoofer sound and be loud - it has to couple with the environment around it.... if you go to the beach and just plop the cooler down in the sand and have the suboofer facing open nothing - its not going to reflect off anything - and sound pretty weak for a subwoofer.... i mean you will hear bass - but dont expect anything like in a car or home theater setup.... id guestimate that 40hz and up is a frequency response you can hope for good sound from in this type of portable speaker cabnet device. in the box i built - i was just using the speakers already in the home stereo cabnets - that were designed to work together with crossovers - eazy and effective see if you can search around for a set of home stereo speakers to canibalize for your project - i would imagine they offer the best results vs $ spent on this project.
