Decent Air Space for (2) 10's

[Kastlez_ 10+ year member]

Just building a simple sealed enclosure for a friends budget build..

subs most likely will be changed out in the near future so i was looking for an average sized enclosure for under 800w.

What do you guys think about:

2.5cf before

approx 1.25 each

Looking for more SQ and rather low-end than punchy bass...

should i go larger or smaller?

Sounds fine. That's a little on the big side for 10s, usually .75-1 per, but should be OK. Will have better lowend and be more efficient.

Yeah, that's what i was thinking.. Well maybe i'll knock it down to 2.25 after displacements

No, 10's are usually 1.0-1.5.

That would sound good.

You need to determine which 10's you are considering, then use their Thiele/Small parameters to see what size box they require.
