(MY BROTHAS KEEPER) I have the box pictured in the thumbnail was hoping to hear about that specific enclosure 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
(nate0) "A giant hole in it!" lol if that aint straight forward to the point I have no idea what is 👍👍
(Robbie Smith) What about ground shacker boxes
(Chilling with Davit) Whats a good box for 4 hole 8” speakers on f150 2018?
(James Harris) what's a good prefab box for two solo baric 12s? Thanks
(Joshua Kemp) When i get my custom enclosure in next few weeks ,i would like to some how get the SK2X12V enclosure to you for testing. I dont believe its 2cuft per chamber. It might be tuned at 32 but can hear chuffling on low notes around 30hz. Took few orders to get one not damaged because skar dosent secure the box.they only use a plastic bag and cardboard. Main concern is the box isnt up to specs. Lots of products from skar have multiple spec contradicting each other. For example vxf 12s says one thing on website and the manual say completely different.
(You Tube) I learned to make my own subwoofer boxes. This way they have the correct air space and they are built to fit my trunk.
(Kewlbug) Everyone keeps saying the baffle is weak, but it seems like bolting a lipped steel ring (the speaker) to the hole would stiffen it quite a bit. It would be interesting to see someone run some boxes with air pressure in solid works to get a better (real) idea of where bracing needs to be. Everyone seems to add 45s to corners and other stuff but placement always seems random and many cases where I know a simple horizontal gusset would be more effective

(Tommy Kessler) The Bbox was not all that great in my 05 altima.
(Baw vdm) Hi there i would like to know how to identify which subs play lows well and which plays higher frequencies well. What ts parameters will indicate that or can any sub play any frequency.
(CARLITO’S WAY) Pre fab Ground shaker boxes hands down 💪🏾heavy duty !!!!!!!!! Expensive but high quality💯👌
(Terry Fowler) I love to hear about it
(1 NYC DJ) Gatley audio makes some serious stuff...1" Birch Ply
(Noah Bowen) Hey, just wondering if you know about the quality of the Ground Shaker Band Pass boxes.
(Kevin G) What you think about 12” ground shaker boxes?
(Jason Arnold) I have a fi audio q12 and I want to use it in my home should I build the box definitely
(nathan lovell) only if u put this vid out a couple years ago I wouldn't have spend hundreds of dollars on boxes that suck. but now I just build custom boxes they are cheaper half the time and overall just better because u can find exactly what u want u just have to have the knowledge.
(Hefty) Would the E12DSV Box work well with a pair of P3D412s
(AwesomeYetFatal) unbearable choice of background music
(NlNER GANG) I need a box for my single 12inch American Bass XFL
(avengethis97) I have that skar box. The speaker wire they include is garbage. My only complaint and it's too small for most of thier subwoofers
(David Schoenrock) Great learning experience.
(D Russell) Bro, if you have a Dyno, you should just do a string of videos testing a bunch of different subwoofer ratings. There's a few, here & there, but no one has more than 2 or 3 brands. Like Derek Willingston has tested probably 100 or more amps, that's kinda his thing. Couple subs, but still, not very many. Someone needs to do subs like he does the amps. Big boy gang moves.
(D Russell) Thanks, Captain Spaulding on his day off!
(Croissant 🥐) What box would you recommend for 2 12" I have a "Kicker CWR122 (43CWR122)" and a "Kicker CompR (30cm) DVC 4ohm Rohs compliant" I'm not sure why my shop gave me the "CompR" one instead of the same subwoofer which is the "43CWR122" one. I was kinda disappointed because they gave me a sealed enclosure box and I should have done some research before buying it smh because it didn't really feel too different
(Fish R Relaxing) I’m old school.. 3/4” mdf all day.. this new 5/8” mdf bothers me.. we didn’t need internal supports back in the day when using 3/4”.. but 5/8 is even the new standard from high end companies..
(redman112010) Im wanting to build a budget system using 6 skar 12s. Im looking at using 2 skar pre fab ported triple 12" boxs with 6 skar svr subs. In your opinion, should i stack the boxs and fire them forward or backwards, or lay them on their backs and fire both up? I dont have the time and effort to build a wall or box big enough and i know the Skar box is built and tuned well for that sub.
(Yuvraj Patel) Hello sir,i have an sub enclosure in 12mm plywood, can i stick 6mm mdf board inside it for better bass?
(Johnny B) Are the name brand boxes worth the extra money? I am looking into getting either 2 kicker 12s with a kicker box or Alpines with an alpine box. Are those boxes worth it or would you recommend the star box?
(Harold h Pritt jr) Hey they make a box called tubo from nippon the specs for most ten inch woofers ported are like 1.4 ported well the 10 inch tubo is off like it could be a sealed 10 but the 12” tubo is 1.37 ported so if you make a adapter it’s almost perfect port length and area is off by a couple inches each but that close is almost unheard of I think they should sale the boxes with out the hole that way you can cut the size and place you want
(P Shizzle) So glad I found this channel! Good stuff bro! 😄🔊
(bassblaster505) 2:05 oopsie, hi QPower QBASS12
(RS94) 0:42 _Blur out the name_ *ONE MINUTE LATER* 1:31 Qpower lol
(Alec Dent) I don't know about the 5/8ths flexing.. especially if it's door grade MDF or Weyerhaeuser "HDF". I work for a cabinet door company and operate a CNC for MDF doors, end up cutting a lot of boxes in free time. Even had success making structurally sound boxes out of 1/2" LDF with the correct bracing. Anyways, great video. Enjoyed it :)
(SOUL MAN) What is the best single 12 inch subwoofer box that I could get for my Sundown Audio Ev4 subwoofer cuz the box that I have my subwoofer in I think I might be a little too small I really appreciate some feedback thank you and keep up the good YouTube videos
(Mad Scientific) Trying to match prefab boxes to drivers is like getting a jigsaw puzzle and then trying to put it together using a picture on another box
(DIY Audio Guy) https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3Aot9dMXzXY7zxDzVdCPLIYnR1FRqghX
(b b) You guys ever heard the song man in the box? It's good.
(Bake Master) Take the first box and throw some pyle audio in there 🤣 it's an SPL box, just invert the subs.
(Patrick Beaty) i use bass box pro to build boxes. i know what i can get out of it before i start cutting wood!!!!
(a 6) All gear is budget gear 🤣 truth
(Sean Sinha) Good job censoring QPower out.
(Bradley Fulbright) I have 2 of the GSR 12's, they sound beautiful; 1 in 2.5 cuft, tuned port to 32 hz, the other in a 2cuft sealed box in my home theater subcabinet converted from an old console stereo. Powered with 200 watt plate amp, I can feel movies sitting on my back porch. Skar or JL prefab are about the only ones worth buying.
(bmtkid00) Got a skar evl-12 i just bought. Looking for a sealed enclosure but most everything out there is ported these days😫😫. Some good quality brands but nothing for a single sealed box @ 1.75 sq ft.
(Murray Sheckleberg) I have the single 12" of the Skar box and was really impressed with it overall when it arrived. Its solid and has a nice kerfed port and the bit of overhang above and below the speaker mount help provide a bit of clearance/protection to the speaker when I need to slide the seat all the way back. I have it in a 90s model extended cab Ranger. It fits with room to spare if you have a Ranger/Mazda Bseries extended cab and were wondering. I couldn't find any info online when I ordered but assumed it would fit one way or another. I could probably fit 2 sitting regular or if I stood them on their side I am almost certain 3 would fit, maybe 4. It stands on its side and stops an inch or two below the rear window which presents some interesting possibilities. The wires are a bit short but manageable and easily replaced if need be. I have had 3 different subs in it with not issues connecting the wires.
(Kenny C) I worked for 9 year at a custom shop and we didn't use MDF, we used Trupan Ultralight and it was a pleasure to work with. The sawdust was like talc and the density was higher but the material was measurably lighter. I always painted bare wood and the inside of enclosures to prevent material "breathing". Have any of you used or tried this material?
(Gavin Mcclure) The skar box is ok the 10 box was better than the 12 version. Had to cut mine so my sub would fit. It's tuned higher than 32hz closer to 36/39
(Attack Roflchopter) We had a local audio shop years (pre internet) when i was a wee aspiring audiophile who when i would ask 'hey what about this sub in this box? Oh yeah yeah, that'll bang. 'Oh ok, well what about that sub in that box?' Oh yeah, that'll bang. I bought a couple of sub, prefab box combos from that guy and they all sounded terrible. Ended up buying a single 12 infinity from circuit city and it was great. Anyhoo, this video just jogged my memory. Box size DOES matter. Wood thickness as well.
(Chris Flores) I'm not going to show the brand because I'm not here to hate on them. 2:30 Scrolls and hates on the brand.😂😂😂
(B C) It’s a box , get over it
(Mechanix NA) Lol, I had an expert make a custom box for my sub, and thought he knew better than the manufacture, and surprise, it's distorted because it is the wrong volume.
(Jerry Tipsword) What do you think about the Down 4 Sound prefab box that is built for Sundown SA subs?
(Nunya Nunya) Sounds to me your skar sponsored! are you
(Chris DIYer) I just bought a Concept Enclosures 15" sub box on eBay for my 15" Skar Audio SVR-D4. 4.25 cu ft, 6" front firing port, birch plywood (two layers on the front!). Tuned to 32 Hz. All for under $350 (they let you customize it before ordering). Been doing car/home stereo since the early 1980s. This sub box is incredible...the output is insane. I agree...most of the cheap crap on Amazon isn't worth the cardboard they are packed in. You want deep bass...having more space & tuned porting by pros that know what they are doing is KEY. Concept Enclosures on eBay.
(MarioKing983) I remember when I got a 80$ box and was booming for a few weeks. Then my subs started to make a farting noise. I thought I blew my subs. But it turns out I blew my box lmao
(xXxTrentXxX) You couldnt have told me this 2 days ago
(Roberto richardsen) 5:12 haha tuned to 36 hrz... without even knowing what subwoofer will be in it :-)
(Crazy speaker pro 95) Lol you can still see the blurred out letters the first one says QPower QBASS12👌😂
(Louken Thompson) Your awesome, recommending those subs in the low cost box is perfect. Going from 0 Bass wattage to 300 watts is still a big improvement for anybody who wats a little somethin. I’m glad I went with the ported 3.5ft.cu. single 12 enclosure. 32hz whould cause some confusion. Says it’s for competition. I have an American Bass sub and a Class- D Mono Block Infinity 1300w amp. So I’m happy you did good things about the box cause I tend to tear stuff up maxxin out. You also might see one of those atrend boxes in a car audio shop as pre fab and I wasn’t sure if the came out of someone’s car at first but they were brand new. So even the pro dealers seem to have some interest in the ATrend brand of pre fab enclosure.
(Killa Bee) My custom box runs circles around my cheap prefab box.
(The Doctors Office) I have Pioneer TS-W3002D2 Subs , And they are actually meant to be used in enclosures with small amounts of airspace 🤔, I have them in 2 Atrend sealed enclosures with 0.75 cubic ft. Of airspace in each , And they sound better and hit harder than a enclosures with more airspace !
(SLUMONE) I wanna know
(block force mod menu xp lobbys all day live steram) Damn first 😂one was mine tf
(BYTSKY) This is hilarious because I have the Skar 10" dual subbox. It could have been built a little better though. Fabric could use some work
(Campbell37GS) The blur the company fail. 🤣 fuck you Q Power.
(randy brown) What’s your take on the Q bomb rhino lined boxed ? I have the spl duel 12” I think it’s tuned to 34htz I have 2 sundown audio zv5’s in it
(DoctorPatient) interesting observation about the flaring of the port ... if you weren't satisfied with such a defect and contacted the seller would you be making a "Port Noise Complaint"? (younger folks might not get that one) ... thanks for well done, informative videos
(Cat Man) I have a 1 x 12” Kicker Comp R. Can anyone tell me if the Skar sub box would be a good match?
(Check for Fleas) As I build boxes. I will tell u. I will buy a bbox myself. It’s a good quality choice. It’s close. But, if u want it tuned to its capabilities build it. Skar is built for their speakers. Yes they’re good. But not every speaker can do 32 htz.
(Check for Fleas) Hold on now. Not every low powered sub can be put in that shit box. Some. But not all. Maybe like a Rockford lol. But I just had some low powered. But they were 10s and built for 28htz. But yes space and recommended htz. They need to pay attention to this. This is a correct video. Stop buying shit boxes. A lot of high powered subs will blow half an inch apart lol. U can use sub box pro. It’s similar type in the volume or if u go for ported you’ll tune it to the specs. Every speaker comes with a manual. U need to read it or find the specs. But u can play with the sizes it will calculate the rest. Most boxes tell u in the specs what they are tuned for and the volume. Your honestly better off building or having some one build it for u
(JuggerJake 115) Don't know if it was intentional, but you defiantly exposed that first box you talked about.
(Jorge Martinez) I have q-bomb tuned to 30hz for two 10" soundqubed. Sounds amazing. I also have a ground shaker box for two 10" Fosgate hx2s and they also slam!
(Workingclass Person) Never buy anything from amazon its seems that more then half the time they have no idea what they are selling, product descriptions/pictures can be worlds off. For how much money amazon makes daily you’d think they’d be the one to buy from. I trust eBay as long as the seller knows there stuff I’ve had very good experience with eBay. Thought amazon is quick to refund your money usually not many questions asked.
(Name chane) The skar box is unavailable
(Fish Chris) I agree that 32hz is "spot on" :) Build all my own enclosures. Right now, I'm running an 18" with two 15" passive radiators in 5 cubes... tuned to 32hz ;) Best enclosure I've ever created :)
(McGerry) I bought a pair of Sundowns SA-Classic 10 4-Ohms, any suggestions for which box to buy?
(Mario Rosales) Q POWER ON THE FIRST ONE. LOL
(Donnie) Allow me to jump in here and recommend the Sound Ordinance boxes sold by Crutchfeld. I have a single 12 box with around 1.9 cu ft tuned to 34hz. Very solid construction sounds amazing love it! Just found your channel subbed.
(pigebear) Would you recommend Skar for a single 12 application?
(dc lowz) Some higher end subs require small airspace... it just depends on the subs.
(jasonneal) Hoffman’s Iron Law
(Randey) I was just looking for wiring info for my L7s and walked straight into a collegiate mathematics course! Great content sir! I'm gonna binge your video library now.
(Swisher) I just bought a QBomb single 12 box. For $150 I hope it’s good. I’m not sure what I’m put in it yet probably JL.
(THEY_CALL_ ME_DON) Any word on how good the LAB slapbox subwoofer boxes are
(Peter Kroeker) They used polyfill which I'll never used since in high power applications it can separate and become lodged in the motor assembly and the spider leading to over heating and destruction.
(J's Chaseventures) Could you do a part 2?
(Larry enticer) Would a 3/8 mdf be ok for 2 12s only at about 300 watt?
(west denver) I need a good box for two TOD412 ROCKFORD SUBS
(FUCK D S S) Let's here the iron law
(FUCK D S S) Lol I need to know which one NOT to order
(Kswis) Excellent video no doubt. Im currently using the skar box right now. Very little port noise with TONS of low end. I've got 2 evl's in it currently but will be placing 2 vxf's in it soon. The evl's are rated at 1250 watts which for around $100? For the 1k plus sun? That's bananas however it def doesn't handle the power as well as the vxf. That is my favorite sub currently. Good mix of spl and sq. Sorry to ramble I geek out on car audio 24/7
(Chico Man) Would you have any advice for a Subwoofer box for my single Sundown Audio X-15 V2 D2? Thanks 👍🏼🇺🇲🤘🏼
(Dane Austin) Down4sound has prefab and loaded boxes that seem legit. Great video.
(Dwayne Hendricks) To me, the only true subwoofer, under $5,000.00 was the Muse model 18! 2-inch walls! I'm sure everyone has their 'test' music. For me it's the 1987 BBC version of Enya 'the celts'. Not the the bastardized 1991 re-mastered WEA version. If it has the picture of two dogs onnit, that's the one you want. There are multiple tracksxwith deep bass in it, but on track #14, the Muse was the only sub able to hit it. I just listened to the $2,700 SVS 16 Ultra, and it didn't hit several of the lower notes! Just outta curiosity, what is/are your test tracks? Thanks.
(Dwayne Hendricks) Prefabs are all bad!!
(brandon cannon) This dude reminds me of the dude that never finishes a project. Car audio Fabrications dad everyone.
(bills butterfly knives) The first box he showed is the one I have😭
(XP Kustomz) I wanna know more about Hoffmans iron law!
(Fishing With Winter) Q power was shown 😂😂😂😂
(Mark Smith) Do you like loaded enclosures
(Chance Quesnelle) You should check out d4S prefab boxes those are pretty good prefab boxes for a cheap price
(Chris) He forgot to blur the company’s name
(Sebastian Stallings) I have a prefab JL Audio prefab band pass box that was built in 1995 and I still have the same two 10’s that came with it. Still runs like it’s brand new
(Hartzal Ray Patterson) Qbomb by Qpower is a really good option as well I use it with 2 15" Kicker Comp C's, and it hits really hard. I'm using a Hifonics 3200 watt Zeus ZRX3216.1 amp. I think it was about 130 bucks for the box after taxes. I do miss the old school bandpass boxes though.
(contraptional audio) Good video and good explanation
(Mazda Nick) I have a 15" rockford fosgate T1 and I've been eyeballing the Skar 15" ported box for months now. After watching your video I decided to have another look to see if it had came back in stock yet. Did some searching and ended up finding it on ebay. Ordered it and it's on its way. I'm excited. Thanks for the motivation.
(Dave Zimmermnan) Do u build for money?
(Rasta Storr) Please help I got myself two toro 8 inch with 800 rms I need a new box because my speakers is popping when I crank bass
(Kyle Vanwinkle) Mobilesoundworks used to make some damn good prefabs. But they don't seem to be around anymore
(ghost- carnage) I bought my custom box for my fosgate p3 single 12 and oh boy it slams
(Michael Young) I’d love to learn about Hoffman’s law
(Lance Stephenson) Would like to see some qbomb boxes
(Jose Garcia) What are your option on the kicker manufacturer box for the older style L7
(B C) I had a cheap sealed box. 3” ports 6” deep with polyfil. I’m at 28hz. Don’t listen to all these guys looking at computer numbers.
(Schmitty_Luv) Would the Skar Audio Enclosure work with a set of Sundown Audio x12s?
(James R _WhiteRock_ OC MD_) Looking for a truck box that could handle a sundown audio sa 12 v2 1000 watt rms. Any suggestions??
(Matt Wells) I honestly think that first box was tuned even higher, I have a slightly bigger prefab with 3/4 MDF construction, and its port goes along the back wall of each side, and its tuned somewhere between 40, and 45 hz, I know this port will take more airspace out, but based on my old box it seems like itd be tuned closer to 50hz..
(YungHaru) obviously qpower on the first one lol. I personally LOVE skar, it's like official knockoff sundown lol
(Jacob Elliott) Best box I’ve ever had is an American sound connection box, it lets that kicker c10 I put in it hit pretty damn hard
(Kade Lubensky) I have a a bomb 10 inch kerf ported box, I'm not sure if qbomb makes it anymore but it's extremely similar to the skar ar1x series box, I have skars evl 10 in it powered by a kicker dxa 250.1 monoblock I've hit 132db at the base of the windshield, and it surprises people everytime they hear it.
(Brendon Kelly) I use a corrugated box from Uhaul. But, I spent the extra coin and got the upgraded one that came with a roll of tape. It's really good tape too.
(James Flick) Great video! Wish I had found your channel sooner.
(sugarmaker67) Yes, IRON LAW please... not much information on the web....
(Quetzalcoatl Toltec Sun God) I'm surprised ground shaker isn't on here.
(Heathen That Heretic) Wish I knew about this channel a long time ago
(Hector Suarez) How bout for home audio?
(Coolarrow) As far as thin walls, i always line it with fiber glass reinforcement cloth or tape. Then pour in the resin. You would be suprised how a cheap box suddenly becomes a pro box. those walls wont flex if theuy wanted to.
(Joe Bruce) There's a company in the south that makes enclosures. There called Fox boxes. I have 2 mid level American bass TNT 15s in one. 7.8 cubic ft. Tuned to 30 Hz. The bass is Absolutely ridiculous on 1500 watts of power. My wife says that the Bass is scary loud.😆😂 I'm ordering 2 American bass 15inch Hawks & a Soundstream Txp. 7k to get a bit louder.
(707_BENSON) What are your thoughts on the Q Bomb boxes the one I was looking at on Amazon I believe was around 140.00 - 150.00 tuned for 30hz thinking about pulling the trigger I’ve got a set of JL W3’s 10’s paired with a Jl jx 1000 watt amp can’t wait to upgrade boxes ❗️
(Skared Chally) What about Qbomb
(Daze One) That skar box is actually one of the best boxes I've bought. 👍
(Chad Freeman) I have that first box. It’s great!
(Aaron Parrish) Your best box is a skar? They probably are spot on for their own subs though.
(Cain&Able) I just installed a new jvc kd-x270bt, new 4x6's in the front and new 6x9's in the rear. Front works great but hardly any sound coming from the rear. Could you give me some advice on what I need to do to get the rear as loud as the front 🤔
(Ronco160) I'd personally buy the $119 dual-port, separate chamber box on amazon made by American sound connection sold by hi-fi sound connection. great tuning hz in the 30's built with 3/4" mdf. plenty of port for each sub. Skar box specs on internal airspace are before port displacement.
(Jon House) I have a 1.2 cubit for a 12" Fi ssd sealed 1500 RMS it does just fine.
(Midnight -Xpress1) Subbed due to you mantra, all gear is budget gear, budgets are just different. So eloquently put.
(Dr. I. B. Safe) Very informative video.
(Bass head Chris) Great information this should help a lot of people
(Manny ETown,KS) I have that exact same skar box for the two twelves and it wouldn't fit my Fosgate P3's but it did fit my two JL W3's and it hit real hard in my 2000 civic Hatch. I had to turn the box the long way to fit though. Tge box was to big for my 08 lexus IS250 and my 09 BMW 328i so i bought a JL slotted port box instead
(Ser Mac) 👌
(Random Tube) Why does a prefab box have to be tuned odd? Like 32hz for example. Why not round it to 2 cubic foot per chamber tuned to 30hz with 1in baffles for a standard prefab box? I would be fine paying $150-$200 for a decent prefab box like that.
(Edward Autrey) Please recommend a pre-fab box for 2 Kicker L7 12’s , new subscriber!!!!!!
(Master Mind) Hate to tell you atrend boxes are garbage also
(chad leimgruber) I’ve used skars boxes there good if you looking for something to get started but isn’t the best the one in this vide I would use jl Audio w3 12 in it
(Chrisnas1) Scar box isn't expensive, thats a good price..
(It's a mad mad world) I subbed! 👍now we want to know about Hoffmanns iron law
(David England) JP Down4Sound has the best ProFabs
(John N) Another great video sir, keep up the car audio classyness
(El Bori Papi Swing) Great video! What’s your thoughts on Q-Bomb boxes? They come rhino-lined and really tough. Dual 12 inch and Dual 15 inch boxes are the most popular on the market. I know prebuilds can’t beat custom boxes, but are they good for what they are?
(Fred Balsam) I just found your channel and man you make great content! To the point and easy to understand. Keep up the good work.
(Waltzs budgetBumpin) I bought a 15" NVX vcw 15 once and was to impatient to wait till I built a box so to get by I bought a cheapo box and wow it was garbage! It had 1/2" mdf sides and 5/8" baffle I was not happy. So I had some 5/8" chip board took n hour and clad it with that and retuned it to 30 while I was at it, then it was stout. I built a box for that driver later on tho, 3/4 mdf is $40 sheet where I'm at bitch is $90 I think.
(luke russell) Hope your channel blows up great information
(luke russell) Fucking love your channel
(David Boodnaraine) I have a scosche 10inch enclosure paired with their discontinued 10inch HD subwoofer and I also have a 12 inch aswell paired with a sony xplod GTR121L so far so good also have 2 discontinued scosche 12inch subwoofers in a wedge style enclosure ported
(VINNY5674) Skar makes good stuff I believe there cut outs are only 11 inches and higher power subs probably won't fit unless you widen out the hole.
(Matthew Foote) I was not impressed at all with my Atrend Ram 1500 "B-Box" from Amazon. I complained and they gave me a partial refund. The pictures showed a nice, metal, push to connect speaker terminal. On the actual box was a cheap plastic thing that couldn't even fit 12 gauge wires, so I had to change that. #2 The "caulk job" was very sub standard, so I had to re-seal it. #3 It specifically said and showed that it came filled with poly fill. It arrived empty, so I had to run to the craft store. I normally build my own enclosures, but the one for the Ram Crew needs some really complex shapes.
(Melvin Harris) 4 hole speaker box needs how much air space and how should it be built 57” long to hold 4 12” subs and the proper port size ????
(Stephen Kaiser) Great information for beginners, and someone like myself. 20+ years ago I was building custom enclosures, been a while. I'm getting back into car audio, and the game has changed.
(motoman22atgmail) I got one of those cheap 5/8 prefab dual 10” center-vented boxes for free (exactly like shown at 0:48) I measured and it was 2.5’ cubed internal vented space (raw) with a huge port. The tune was calculated right about 48hz. Safe for most subs but FAR from what I wanted. To get a 36hz tune it needed less port area for the set port length. I reduced the port floor and ceiling distance with scrap, closed off the voided port area front and back, and wrapped it in a layer of 1/2” for rigidity. A free box, a few hours of calculations and cutting/gluing scrap = DEEP bass that sounds great. It can be done if you don’t have time to start from scratch.
(Williston Audio Labs) Excellent video from start to finish! Great job!
(Z Hedge) Port tuning frequency is a meaningless spec though unless it clarifies for which woofer. Every woofer will have different TS parameters, so different woofers will be tuned differently in the same box. Otherwise, every manufacturer would list the same box plans.
(3RD ERA) Great input for those looking to get a box off Amazon!! 👍👍
(HifiVega) Man I miss Obcon! Great video and information it’ll definitely help out some of the guys who never even considered the differences in enclosures.
(ReDmAn) I just bought the single 15 version of the Skar box and ill have to say for a prefab box its one of the nicer ones I've seen I'm going to put an Audiopipe TXX-BDC4 15 dvc2 in it very soon
(Jeff needs to give Jake a turn on the ps4 -) Thanks for the videos man. I always enjoy them. Q-Logic used to make some really solid prefabs way back when, but I think they quit. Or got bought out.
(Josh M) 4:48 Meanwhile my Ultimax 10" has twice that air space. 😂 I love my infrabass.
(J.Steger) Avpriority is a seller on eBay and its a awesome box cut with cnc
(Bradimus1) I expected Atrend to come up. I enjoyed selling and owning their products. Better quality than most prefabs.
(Thumper) 1. Is Qpower its garbage I’ll say it for you.
