[QUOTE="Trixter, post: 148950, member: 542668"] When building a box use the internal demensions. (if you using 1/2" subtract 1" in your external measurements.) Speaker displacement should also be considered...how much volume the speaker takes up. When you buy a sub, it should say in it's paperwork if their are using internal or external demensions and give the sub displacement. (If they use external, they teel you what thickness of wood to use.) If the enclosure alreay has the sub installed, you need to find out what thickness the material is and the sub displacement and measure accordingly. (L x W x H / 1782 = cu.') If the encloseur is irregular shaped then you have to remember geometry class. Divide it up into squares and triangles (or even circles) to get the numbers. Shap doesn't really matter. The important thing is the volume. MDF is the best enclosure material. If it will be in a rough application you can use some of your hard woods like oak, maple, ect... [/QUOTE]
