[QUOTE="S.P.L., post: 6749800, member: 620770"] My advise would be to check out some pre-fab boxes to how they are designed and built. There are a bunch of enclosure companies that have pre-fab boxes that meet your requirements. Also you would definitely want to use a true vent and not just an open slot port. However in either case your vent or port should be vertical and not horizontal. As far as what the Hz the box should be tuned to for optimal sound should be recommend by the manufacturer in the manual for you sub (or online). Building a vented or ported enclosure can be pretty tricky. You might want to look into just getting a pre-fab enclosure. Atrend has some enclosures that might work for you. Based on what your looking for I would recommend the the 10SQV or the 10LSV which are both found on this page [URL="http://74.53.76.202/~atrendus/atrend-pro-series.html"]Welcome to Atrend Usa[/URL] From my experience buying a pre-fab enclosure is the better and easier way to go about getting an enclosure for your sub. In the end if you calculate the cost of raw materials and labor used to build a box it ends up being more expensive and a lesser quality that what a good pre-fab enclosure would cost. [/QUOTE]
