how to tell what a box is tuned to

[MikeR. 10+ year member]

lol no, i got a random urge to build a box so i used what i had. there was some plywood leftover from remodeling the bathroom that i managed to use for the base, the rest is from scrapping the other sub boxes.

Do you do everything in life this half ass? Honestly bro how could you think that what you built was qualified to be a subwoofer box. I'm not ripping on you for feeling the need to build a box, you just did it sooooo badly. By the looks of things though I'm guessing you don't care to much about your car, much less what you put in it.

In the end it's your stuff so have fun

i suppose i'll wait til payday and buy some materials, gonna go with a bit smaller box as well lol. although im diggin the 26 hz note this thing can play. felt like a chest massage from inside out. if i go with a smaller box what would i have to tweak about the port size to keep the subs lows the same? just have the port in proportion to this boxes size? but on a smaller scale? or would the output be diff?

for gods sake, somebody post a drawing of a box plan for this dude.

Try playing around with this to see how port W and L effect tuning.

He HAS to be joking. NOBODY ***** at life this much.

If he is indeed joking, he must not have to exciting of a life to go through what he's going through just to play off a "joke" online.

I want a pict of the bathroom. If that box and system looks good then I have to see a pict of something else.

Those staples would have been fine building the first box if you would have used some wood glue. Liquid nails is construction adhesive mainly used as panel/drywall adhesive or for everyone else that has no clue as to what glue to use where.

Get some wood glue

Get a plan

Take some time and plan ahead you just might surprise yourself

Please post picts of the bathroom.

I think people should let him learn from his mistakes.Holding his hand by him useing some one else's design gives him no reason to grow as a box builder.If he is aloud to try his own thing he will either get better or sooner or later give up and have a shop do it.Either way the car audio world wins

Doing designs has nothing to do with being capable of building enclosures. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

I for one, can design simple enclosures, but no where near what a lot of others can do.

********. If he has a good design, and builds it moderately well, he'll be so impressed that he'll try again. If he keeps guessing and doesn't learn anything, he's not getting anything out of it.
