Sundown E8 sealed box for single cab truck

[-Juggernaut- 10+ year member]

Anyone got a design for a sealed box for an E8? Going in a single cab truck behind the seat. probably pretty simple, but it's been a while since I've built any boxes, still have the construction skills, just not the design....

can anyone help?

I'm in the process of putting two E8's behind the seats in my single cab truck. I"m doing a 1.2 cu^f box ported and I think I have less space than you and I'm fitting the box, 3 good sized amps and 4 xovers. according to sundown's website they only need 0.28 sealed. do you have winISD or BassBox 6 Pro? Two free programs that help design a box very easily.

A sealed box made out of 3/4 MDF 12" wide, 10" tall, 8 inches deep at the bottom and 5.84 inches deep at the top would equal .28 cu^f. then you could put your amp on another piece of MDF next to the box.

when I make my box I'm running the entire length behind the seats with the enclosure I make. I'll have the actual speaker enclosure in the middle, on either side of the enclosure I'm building two small storage spots the same dimensions as the box and then above the box I'll extend the MDF up along the cab wall and put the amps, dist block, xovers etc there. I can then run all my wire down through the storage compartments, out the bottom of them and under the seats to the HU, to the frame for ground and under the carpet to the speakers.

here are all the specs for the E8's:

PM me if you want either of those programs, I can send you the .EXE file or I'm sure you can Google them, that's how I found the.
