Enclosure Size

[Scooby 8]

Going to install a dual setup in my car during the winter months. The box has 1.17 cu ft. air space. and 8.5" depth. I can have a port put in if you guys think it would make a difference. Wanting to make sure everything is good before I start ordering stuff.Thanks

Need way more info man. Subs? Amps? Car? Goals? Just to name a few things.

Here are the recommended enclosure specs for 12" Sundown Audio drivers - 1.5 - 2.0 cubes ported / 1.0 to 1.25 sealed

Car: 2002 Camaro SS

What are the maximum dimensions that you are willing to give up?

[Scooby 8]

The box has to be made to fit in the cubby hole in the rear. Here's the approx. box specs

Width 37-1/4 Length 13-3/4 Depth 9-1/2"

[Ohjay 116]

Should be just enough volume for a nice, custom ported enclosure.

If your going for SPL what kind of numbers are you trying to achieve?

maybe he means high output??? loud = SPL to him????

[Scooby 8]

Yeah,I'm looking for Loud.No particular number in mind.I used to have a single ten inch in a stealth enclosure and it was pretty loud due to the way the hatch would make it sound louder. There's always some guys/gals that I run into at work that have systems they think is loud,there system is,but not that loud.Figure I would try to do something in my off time to show them what loud really is.I've wanted to try the SA-12,so I figure why not now.

[Kanaworm$ 292]

Ok so you're looking for a loud daily setup.

A single 12" SA-12 would be great. I would recommend porting it though.

[Shogen 325]

Fo' sho .... port that beech!!!

[Scooby 8]

Ok,looks like a single SA-12 ported to say around 30HZ?

[ALL4SPL 4]

2cuft after all displacement tuned to 35Hz should be very nice in your application.

[Scooby 8]

Ok. I'll let my box builder know to give me 2cuft and tune it to 35HZ. Thanks for the help guys.

Your dimensions are right at 2 cubes without displacements.

[Kanaworm$ 292]

Subtract 0.14ft^3 for the sub and if want to save space use 1 4" Precision "Aero" Port with a length of 13.875" should get you right at 1.78ft^3 tuned to 35HZ.

Great.

Port displacement is going to kill you unless you can go external.
