You'll be changing the port area so it will affect tuning slightly.

If that's true, then you shouldn't tune low, IMO.

Doesn't take a genius to use google.

Yeah, that was my whole plan, I can sand and putty anything to perfection. It's a lot easier than learning to measure, I mean, I'm not Stephen Hawking.Truck was a good deal, lucky for me some poor guy died and his wife traded the truck in for a new Hyundai. The Hyundai store took it to an auction where I got it, normally when I get a deal like that I never keep it but I had been looking for a clean 3/4 ton big block TBI truck for quite some time. It's good to have around but I hate to keep it considering it's a $4000 truck around here.Also, I'll most likely be ordering a sub amp this week, looks like the Alpine MRP-M2000 wins. Once I get a little further along I'll post some better looking pictures. he may be able to measure but he can't hold the saw yeah that truck was a steal for $1600 never heard of any 'whistling' problems with the wires in the port I concluded that I must never cut wood again after being up for 24+ hours.

Temporarily disconnect the 2nd battery to test the theory.

depends, in all honesty, one tiny air leak isn't going to make any audible difference. Let alone several tiny air leaks. None of that is audible. I strongly disagree. Have you ever even heard a leaky sealed enclosure? Yes, but we're not talking about a sealed enclosure are we? Also, Richard Clark must be a moron then.

Yeah just did that as a temp setup. In time there will be studs through the box to connect them.

why does it seem like your refering to me..its not my set up i was just there and now im giving my 02. the guy went out and spent 300 to have someone build him a box and it wasnt impressive. the box was to big for the treo almost double but it did what it was suppost to. Then what is the point of this thread?

Liquid nail isn't going to penetrate into the wood like wood glue does.

Welcome, also in mn. Located on the east side.

Also, shakes is dying(sick as fuck) so I'll be putting some finishing touches and installing it tomorrow with another buddy.

and yes, some of the cuts are off on the double baffle. That's what happens when the safety glasses you're using are blurry and full of shit. Today was better with my nice glasses.

Here's somewhat complete. Just set the subs in to see how it looks for the pic. Still have a few screws and such to finish, and probably some paint in the port.

Sounds like the surfaces were not clean. Glue needs a clean surface and a slight abrasion to said surface to hold well.

Might try hitting up any local place that does car audio installation. A lot of those guys have them on hand and would most likely come out and pull it for you for nothing.

I'm designing a box with the help of the torres box calc and sketchup and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions or if this looks right. I believe I included all necessary dimensions, but if I forgot any let me know. The subs will be mounted on double baffle up top, with rear facing port. Any help/suggestions/comments are appreciated!

Decided to do a stupidly cheap wall build in my festiva for shits and giggles. - 8-10 PW1074US super blues - audiopipe AP30001D - some cheap batteries - some cheap ass mids and tweeters. This build log thread will just be here to show it can be done. The build will start within the next few weeks if not months when I get off my lazy ass. Until then, tune in for the next build log which will be for another member on here, shakes.

I've been drunk a lot lately. Soon enough I'll go out and get a bunch of measurements so I can plug it in and design the wall and other aspects.

I thought you were an audiophile? This thread disappoints me greatly.

X2 John, I know where your coming from but this does not concern me. Here you must back up your posts, not lurk in, call someone a dumbass then leave the thread. This is NOT CA.com. Not calling him a dumbass, just that he should read up a bit to understand how electricity works. Increase voltage at a steady current, and your wattage will increase (obv.) However, I am to believe this power supply he's using will not hold that current rating as voltage is increased. Besides, I wouldn't even try to use that PSU on any amplifier with any decent amount of output... Just get a car battery if you want to do that, or a few.

You obviously do not understand how electricity works then.

yeah to go off of that. turn it all the way UP then turn your volume knob to your max listening level. slowly turn your filter down until you reach the max you want your sub to move(maybe a bit less). that should do you good. yessir

How exactly does one fix a drive-by-wire vehicle themselves when it's a computer control related issue?
