[QUOTE="ajm, post: 2716932, member: 564003"] I am no longer interested in a ported box as both of them have not performed as well as I would like. I have decided to build a sealed box given that this would work/the mdf is stong enough. The box will be built to where the outer edge of each sub [10" l7] is touching the next. This will leave about 1.2 inches of wood between each sub. Due to this I am worried about the box not having enough strength so at each one of those 1.2" sections I would add a brace which would create a single chamer for each sub which comes out to 1.13 cubes before displacement. Do you guys think the braces would provide enough strength to where the side the subs are mounted on doesnt flex? Autocad drawings are below. First pic is of the box w/ braces, second is braces with mounting holes, third would be braces with the sub mounted.
