Traded my system...need help on something new..

[hoxie08 5,000+ posts]

I traded my system to jcee since it was way to big to comfortably fit in my truck, however now I would like to build something just a bit smaller so i wont have to compromise so much room.

I've never messed with ported boxes before, so I have just a simple question. On the JL audio site it says the 8W3v2 requires .75 cubic feet of space in a ported enclosure....if i was to get two 8W3's would I need to have 1.5 cubic feet or would that just stay at .75 cubes?

Any insight will be greatly appreciated.

1.5 cubes plus port

1.5 cubes plus port

That is right. You need .75 cubes per sub, but that doesn't include the volume of the port or sub displacement.
