[QUOTE="The_Grimy_One, post: 7485445, member: 632816"] Well I am no expert, so I cannot answer all your questions... But yes if each sub has a recommended 2 cubes, then they together will need 4 cubes, which is more than likely after all displacements (i.e. port area, sub displacement, and any bracing). You can put them in a shared chamber ported box, which is what I assume the recommended 2 cubes each is for. To save even more room, you may want to consider a sealed box, not sure how those subs sound sealed. Fiber glassing will save some weight, but if you are still going to use MDF, its not gonna get you quite where you want. I would suggest either building a box out of BIRCH, or using birch as a skeleton for the fiberglass box. Birch is much lighter and can be just as strong. [/QUOTE]
