dual ported box tuned for Alpine type X 10"

[zonecode88 10+ year member]

I need to be pointed in the right direction of where to find a ported box that is tuned for the specs of the Alpine SWX-1042D subs. It needs to be a dual box.

These are the specs for the optimum ported box provided in my manual:

1.25 cu. ft. gross internal volume

12.5" x 14.5" x 16.5" dimensions

11"^2 (11" x 1") slot vent area (dimensions)

22" slot vent length

.25 cu. ft. vent displacement

.85 cu. ft. net internal volume

27hz, 5.2dB, 32hz........ (F3, ripple, Fb)

Since thses specs are for 1 sub, I assume a dual box would about the same as two boxes of these specs placed side by side. Not sure but I would guess that each sub should have its own airspace in the box. I really don't know where to find something like this and I don't wanna pay out the a$$. Thanks for any suggestions.

You can build one with a little time and patience for about $50. I did and could not be happier.

Since I don't want to pay a custom box builder hundreds of dollars for one it seems I will be doing just that, building my own. I didn't want to at first just because I only have some basic carpentry experience. Ill go pick up a bunch of MDF, wood screws and liquid nail and see what I can do. Thanks.

Don't forget if you buy your mdf at home depot, they'll cut it all out to your demensions for free when you buy the wood.

or you could look on ebay. On the street, a custom camaro box is about 200. I bought mine off ebay for $50. brand new with good quality mdf and everything.
