Must I double up the wood?

[Kaboob 10+ year member]

Making a ported box for 2 type R's, do i need to double up on the wood on the front of the box for support? Using 3/4 MDF. Can someone do a quick final box check for me also?

External measurements: 33 longm, 15.84 wide, bot depth 17 in, top 13

Displacements: 2 3x3x3 boxes

Wall of 3/4 MDF seperating the chambers

Acoording to my math should be about 1.7 cu ft per chamber. Thanks

x2 on doubling up...not necessary. You do have a decently long stretch though, may want to consider just a small strip to brace. Chances are you won't have any issues, but it won't hurt, nor will it take long to do on the front and back of the box //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
