Hello Friend!
BIG BASS small space! - Downfiring PORTED Subwoofer Box!
YouTube Video
Adding a subwoofer to a vehicle doesn't mean you need to lose your whole trunk or cargo area. With a downfiring subwoofer box enclosure the subwoofer is protected, and with a proper design that includes a ported layout along with a powerful sub we can get great low bass output. Let's build a subwoofer box for this application!

(Miguel Ortiz) Hi can I pay you to do a speaker box for me
(Joe's Junk) Is the downfiring setup in a sedan going to reduce output compared to rear firing ? Doing 1 skar 10 ( cause im poor) also stock electrical.
(El Guero) Disculpa ,en que ciudad tienes el taller ?.
(Skylar Helmbeck) Where did you get the router guide for the baffle face
(George yslava) Anything for a jeep gladiator? Under back seat.
(BLMS-NU) Man i have i question. I have an issue with HPF .. i have Alpine headunit UTE-200BT the problem is when i turn ON the HPF no matter at what frequency i set it 80,120,... (i would like to run it at 80hz) as soon as i turn the volume above medium but still far away from the maximum (max volume on the headunit is 35, anything above 25 is a problem with HPF turned on) the tweeters start to make a weird poping sound everytiime in a song there is a snare hitting. but as soon as i turn the HPF OFF i can go way more crazy with the volume (up to 33 or even maximum i did it once just for a test i never run my system at full volume) and it does not happen. It's so confusing i have no clue. I would be so thankfull if you can help me! oh and one more thing i dont use any crossovers i just changed the stock car speakers with these and they are Alpine SXE-1750S they have a capacitor for a tweeter so its protected from the low frequencies.
(Petrolhead) I am going to build something very similar. First time builder and have watched loads of your excellent videos, very helpful and informative. You reccomend Titebond II however difficult to find where I live however I can get Gorilla Glue and Evostick wood glues. Just wondering which to but and for a project this size what quantity to buy. Thanks
(juntoa37) Can you port sealed box?
(MJL) Is it OK to fire the ports in the opposite direction as the sub? Like putting the port for example on the back of the box?
(Terrel SKinner) how for this box from you? i have that woofer. thanks
(Lee Griffith) Can you do a video on hard Corner consequences? I've never understood why we wanted to round. I have a pretty good idea but would like a clear concept. Thank you
(Jayalath Wijethunga) Good i like
(hyperliterider861) Son of a!….I’m just about to finish my first box (Came out great), but now I wanna do this! 🤣😂
(Red Dawn) Kicker by rocford is way more cost-effective
(A. Castillo) Trying to figure out the design I want to do for my Durango in the same rear with the storage hatch area. Something like this would be perfect if I could get it to port out to the left side where the Durango has that little pocket section. Would a slot port like this be able to be angled more toward the center of the side as opposed to the corner? Love the channel and really glad I came across this vid in particular right now!
(Gennadiy Patsuk) Hi! Great job! I have a question. Do you have a video where you can make the smallest buffer in a small car?
(Jet Ski Rehab) You should design a good subwoofer box/setup for a Jeep TJ! the aftermarket community is lacking in that category but I feel a ported box for downfiring dual 10s would be awesome! SubThump has one but I feel they leave airspace to be desired in the height category. Wanting that low boomy bass for rap and such.
(Jason Alamo) Help!!! I have 2 Memphis 12s in a enclosed down fire qbomb probox and the excursion is too great and it is rubbing or hitting my floor mats…. What could I do to correct this issue?
(erwin lopez) I have 2 12w3 what would be the best way to go sealed or ported? Sub are going into a crew cab Silverado 2017
(Terry Kester) this is quite a bit late after the vid was released, but have you ever built a custom box for a Nissan Frontier? I just installed a JL Audio C1 690 in the front and the C1 650x in the rear and haven't quite figured out what kind of sub or box to go with. What are your thoughts on this one?
(skyliar motichek) Id like to see a router video
(RobbyBear) TSA2000LD2 I will pay. I dont have tools to make it.
(Jaime Barragan) What did you guys do before CNC machines!!!!? Watch this video. 🔥
(Aaron Witchey) I always wondered how JL got that tucked carpet look on their boxes.....who would have thought they had rabbits working on the production line!🐰
(Richard Dean) Do you have plans for a Gen 5 camaro convertible box that can house 2 10" JL 10tw3 shallow subs. If not, what would you charge to make them?
(Jam Havoc) Could you make a video about Box Rising? Thanks greetings
(Brian Wallace) I have a 2017 Chevrolet Malibu and like to see a box made for it
(Matti Messi) Have question What you think about dsp hertz h8??
(Music Critic) Where did you get those templates cutouts you used for the router? They looks like white plastic.
(Floyd Williams) Ram 2020 Regular cab need subwoofer box design
(Bryant Thombs) I would like to see the router video.
(Anthony Aranjo) Can I buy this enclosure?
(Rolf Bach) Im wandering why you always say ported? I have had and heard many ported enclosures. And they all sound farty. Every great system i have ever had and heard. was a sealed enclosure. To me they sound better and are smaller. Also almost always fire down! Spl ported. quality sound sealed. Am i missing somthing. Serious question love this channel. And your work is absolutely amazing!!
(Olando Julien) Can you build a box for a 2018 Chevy Impala?
(Dustyn Hawley) Channeling some Chrisfix vibes with all the on screen pointing and hand gestures
(R J) You should take and make boxes on request. $75 for dimensions are a little crazy
(S TEEMO) Where do I get the drawing for this exact box? I have the exact speaker and looking to build one
(Эдуард Сергеев) Nice.👍👍👍
(trunkbangking) Have a few topics for a video. Upgrading batteries? Ah? Tuning for cabin frequency? Testing ground resistance?
(Daniel H) I built a bigger version of that for my cousin old bronco. Man did it sound good even when you open the back since its facing down it still sounded good. Then another one of our cousins looked at it and told him to cut the bottom pieces so it would be smooth and face the sub inside. It sounded like $&>t and I told him I will never build you a box again. He use to ask and I would refer him to our other cousin he doesn't ask anymore lol.
(Nana Beatz) Great video, but can this work in a 2018 BMW 7 series with a Bowers & Wilkins factory sound system. Also, note that i have a spare tire package which i can remove to make more space. Thanks
(diekman1979) Need specs for subwoofer build for 2013 Ford Raptor
(CREATOR NAVI) You are a gift brother I've learned a lot of thing's thankyou for keeping it clean.
(Dion) Hello can you make a sub box for a 2006 Chevy Colorado Xtreme crew cab under rear seat?

(kailana williams) need to show how to make a flexless abs Harley bag audio
(Paul Lombardo) I want the router video!
(Bahi E) Captivating video , but one safety point: Please do not work with circular saws wearing long woolly sleeves overhanging your hands like that, you could lose your limb easily. Stay safe and keep up the good work.
(Marlon Mills) Can you make a box for me I need bass from a small enclosure
(10k Rms) I just pick a set of kicker lt7s shallow subs 12s n there r going b hind the seat of a 03 silverado single cab i need two boxes one for each side so i can move up n down the center consul thers about 22 wide n 16 high n 7-8 deep u have a diagram for the boxes can u make it to kicker seald specs thanks
(xaye24) Mann u have CRAZY talent!!!!!!
(Simon Merciers) Router bit video is a necessity.
(Cameron Nurcombe) Awesome video as always, make me want to make more boxes
(Cameron Nurcombe) Do the plans come with conversion to mm?
(Joselo Jaramillo) Q buena caja ,, exitos
(07BLUESTI) Hey Mark great video thanks! Can you do 3 JL Audio 13 inch subs in a 2020 silverado under the seat?
(Darrin Berndt) what kind of router are you using underneath?
(Mash Rien) "Zero Gauge".. We elechickens call it "single aught" or "one aught" 00 being "double aught", etc.
(Spratlyk9) Your pieces are nice and cleanly cut! I think you talked me into buying the Porter Cable 890 series. Is there any particular model that you can recommend? I'll basically use it with a router table (but i cannot afford a router lift)... so its the router, a plate and attach it to a DIY table. By the way, what computer program or software do you use to draw your plans? Thanks in advance for your answer and more power to your channel!
(Carlos Gonzalez) Si alguien tiene las medidas de esta caja pasemela por favor
(mukesh kumar) Just woooooow....
(Trev) thats great, I would buy one of your plans but I don't know anyone with a saw
(Julio Quiñones) What Size of wire and what type and size of wood are you using here????
(Brian Epindonta) Similiar like altec lansing ATP3.
(Bobby Hempel) Do you do boxes for under the back seat of a truck? I didn't see anything on your site.
(Led Hsk) Incredible. You are an artist!
(Lawrence Atwood) Would definitely like to see a router video
(Andres Hernandez) Are you going to make a router bit video
(Steven Berg) Does the direction the port have an effect on the direction the sub is facing? In this video the sub faced down and the port to the side. Could you do a top facing sub with the port facing the back of the vehicle say for a hatchback? Thanks
(SsgtHolland) That's a very nice setup, I've never seen woodworking that clean and dust-free!
(SAVANA CAR AUDIO) hello master ... I'm from Indonesia very interested in your channel, can you give me an example of making a subwoofer box on a Mitsubishi L200 Triton GLS 2010. Thank you
(míscaro) cool workshop man!
(SmOoThYwOoDy) I don't want you to make a video for, what I would like for you to make for me is, one of your bad azz ported subwoofer box. Because I don't have all the nice tools you have to make one.
(Austin Robinson) Hey where'd you get that foam for wires
(agust wiliansyah) terlalu banyak bicara. lelah mendengar
(Rich Long) I like the way you build and your techniques. Not a fan of that gray tho
(Jack Leonard) Nice build! I always thought a sealed enclosure could be smaller and when put in a hatchback the cars interior shape would enhance the sub bass. ?
(Umut Bayram) Yanlış kabin
(DATzenki !) How much for that box?
(Hamilton Mechanical) I want to see your dust collector setup. I never see any sawdust! I must know your secrets! LOL
(myboy051) If you could fit one or the other , what would you recommend . 10” TW3 or the 10” W3 v3 ?
(D.I.Y home improvement with Byron) That's so cool
(Adrian Rodriguez) Do you have any models for a 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 quad cab under seat ported enclosure
(twl197860) Seeing all those rings just gave me a crazy idea , what about a 8th order basscannon ?
(ned900) Tried cutting with my handheld router and a small bit yesterday, it jumped so much I used a chainsaw instead. I am serious. I need to get a Bosch jigsaw. I would love for you to explain how the upwards firing router works and is assembled.
(shinoj thankappan) I am from india, love your videos, keep going...
(Chevy Boi) I have a 2003 Lincoln I need help for a system?
(Natanael 809.) Thanks for you time. And dedication
(Bryce .Morgan) Can I make a small dual ported enclosure for some p3 12's?
(S TEEMO) Did you make your own JL Audio sub template? I would like that template
(Ted King) So I have a 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe I bought a Kicker Baric L7S 12" 2-OHM it came in a ported subwoofer enclosure I figured that a single subwoofer in an enclosure wouldn't give me any issues but it's to big to fit in my trunk the enclosure is about 2 and a half inchs to big from fitting it into the trunk I didnt realize it and I didnt install it right away and it's to late to return it I took my back seat out and made a bracket to set it on but now I have a huge box in the back seat I really want to put this into my trunk because I have kids and need to be able to use the trunk. The speaker is the square one could you give me some ideas on how to build a box to fit this into my trunk the main thing is I still need to be able to get to my spare tire I dont really care about how much space I have in the trunk so long as the speaker fits in the trunk and I'm able to get it out to get to my tire I have liked and subscribed to the channel thank you in advance!
(Basco Lights and Sounds) Nice video content bro. I hope you visit and hug my house to thanks.
(DJDorcFich) Question: I have a jeep wrangler what do I put in the boxes to improve sound?
(master Bryan) I want to put 2 18" 3200w skar subwoofers in my 2020 Honda Civic LX. I want to put both in a really small box with 4 6" tube ports. What's your thoughts??? And still have plenty of space for cargo.
(Richard Sloan) But do you change the oms per amo. and sdkixt fpr ot tp spimd great

(HasoonTech) me 2 brother ima big fan been watching your channel for years i was trying to see what brand is your plate earlier 😅 on a different video of yours but since you mentioned it yes i would love to see all those router tools
(Kristopher Lee) Yes to the router video please.
(Kai Sharma) Everything is so nice and premium looking. Love your vids, so calm and informative.
(Jerry Polete) You should make a video making a box with just everyday tools rather then expensive tools that most people don’t buy.
(Jerry Polete) Wish I had a table like that I would be a professional as well if I had all the right tools.
(Ronin Mantis) Beautiful shop.
(RAPIDFIRE_LIVE_ONLINE_RADIO) THIS BOX IS INCREDIBLY AWESOME, WHATS THE COST TO SHIP A FULL MAKE BOX TO TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO?.......FOR A TIIDA LATIO
(Joseph gonzalez) Need this for home system
(Chris Cain) Do you sell the plans for this build (box only)? I have this exact subwoofer in a sealed box, but want to change to downfire ported.
(J Fray) What table saw is that?
(99GAGT3x00) do you guys sell the boxes all built. i don't have a wood shop to build a box.
(Ivn T) could you make some comparison between sealed box and passive radiator subwoofer?
(Rence Chan) Able ship to Malaysia?
(Dave Morgan) There is nothing in the video description?
(Tom Wible) How do you do the box volume and port calculations?
(ATP Customs LTD) Love your videos. Keep em coming!!!
(Mas Bagio) Tes sound ??????

(TidwellFPV) Router video sounds good to me. Great channel! Subbed!
(187blacmagic) I wish i had the eq and this talent to build stuff like this.. i need this for my 2017 gmc canyon crew cab
(David Smith) Where do you get the template for the jl tw3 10 sub
(Joe Pratt) Dude your shop is amazing.
(Rich Acevedo) what were the dimensions for that box it seems big for a single 12
(V B) Hi Mark I been following you for about two years. I have a custom car I am building and I want to ask you about a custom box/ fiberglass face box with the amp rack all in one behind the seat of a 1980 Chevrolet El Camino . Any ideas would help?
(ENGINE BAE) I bet that slaps more than rafa’s moms buttcheeks.
(Maurice Clark) Ok so I'm a mobile mechanic and I use my car to tote my tools around but I would like a sub. Any recommendations?
(Tim Smith) Damn as a wood worker I can't figure out why boxes seam so complicated.
(Rene Ayala) Do you have a box for under the seat of a 2017 Chevy Colorado? Something to use 2 JL Audio 10W3?
(Elmer 900) I have to say that you have inspired me alot, I've been building my 3rd sub box now. And I can say that thanks to your videos, it turned out amazing. I am incredibly happy with the results and all the ideas you gave me, the how to only use simple tools only video gave me alot of help. Thanks!
(VIKEN) where's the next part of this build?
(Uptowns Finest) I wanna get Skar Audio VVX-8v3 D2 8" 800 Watt Max Power Dual 2 Ohm Car Subwoofer not sure what box to get
(Gary Priest) I have a 2001 four door not the crew cab it has 6x8 what speakers do you recommend
(xgouldiex) That's a nice coffee table lol only joking nice work
(Micha Nic) Где прослушка ? Блеааать !
(TheLuke5853) perfection!!
(gaj9080) I would like to see that router table build and explainations
(Mój Garaż) Nice job :)
(Keith Caudill) hi mark love your videos. do you have any explaining inverted sub and the box
(IKESTERrocks) Quick question I'm stuck on doing a cut out for the box I'm building the subwoofer cutout is 11.3 inches which would be under the metric tape right how would u figure that out on an imperial tape?
(blade1269) Stupid question... does the type of wood make a difference, ( oak, mdf osb) with sound or does the wood just make the building cheaper
(2ndshiftaudio) I do have a serious question. Where do you get the money for such tools?? The router bits and templates ect. I mean I have nice tools as well. But, my collection was built over many many years. I mean I got some tools that are older than you. You sure as hell didn't pay for all that doing car audio. I know that.
(Irish Rabbit) How you calculationg how much dumping material put into the subwoofer enclosure ? And why you are not covering entire walls inside with it ? With be interesting to see video about it. Also wil be great to see your experience in calculating closed boxes volume. As example I have Audison APS10D and 15L closed box ( inside of the spare wheel ). But Audison recommend 10-12L boxes , however if I put paraments of the speaker in to online calculator , to get 10L Qtc have to be around 1.1 which I do believe is to high. What is your opinion? How sound of the subwoofer changed depend on volume of the closed box ( ported boxes is way more complex story to start with) With best regards /Andrew
(Narcolepsykid) Wouldent fiberglass maximize space?
(Sonia C) Do u have anything for a 2017 Chevy single cab shortbed
(Nathmie De vos) Yes do it Please
(Curtis C) With the volume underneath the woofer and the ‘ports’ caused by the feet, wouldn’t this model as a 6th order bandpass.
(Jeff Schultz) Hey man, I have a question and you’re the only person that I know who I’m sure would know. When I start my car and turn my music up, the subs hit super hard. But after about 5-10 minutes they start to get quieter. It’s pretty much every time too. They get about 1/3 rd quieter and pretty much stay that way until I shut the car off and start it again. Would a capacitor fix this issue do you think? Or maybe my wire size is too small? (Which I don’t think is the issue) after that I would think it’s the battery or alternator. But wondering if I should try the capacitor first to rule things out.
(Marco Gomez) Router vid!
(Jah Son) Grey wood. Do it.
(HifiVega) Great video as always! This one is just in time because I’m going to be building a downfiring enclosure for my wife’s trunk.
(Scott) Tell me more about the white TW3 shaped template you were using for the recessed baffle. Is that something you made yourself? If so, how? Or purchased? If so, where?
(Bob O'Connor) I'm looking forward to that router video....
(Jeremy Cole) I would like to see the router video. I plan on getting the Porter Cable router mentioned in one of your previous videos. I would definitely like to see some of the tricks and the bits that you use to fabricate your designs. Thanks for all of the incredible and helpful videos! Your videos are exactly what car audio fans are looking for..help and tips!
(van Demonian) great channel - awesome vids - would love to see a router bit survey - go for it
(Dreaded Jay) @DonutMedia just started a new series showing how to do a project car and I think that it would be great if you collaborated with them on some audio work!
(buckylaine) Another great video as always! We would love to hear more about your tools and your shop. With as much MDF as you cut, what is your favorite blade for the table saw?
(CSOCSO) my brother has 4 of these in his mustang. full custom build looks and sounds really good
(Action E Jackson) I would enjoy watching a shop tour video if you don’t ha e one already.
(robb ryan) Yes Mark please make a router video! I bought a router because of your videos.
(Big Pop) Just my opinion but, your plugs should be shameless. You do awesome work and you should be paid for the time you take to design these plans. Great work and great video.
(ryerye700) Lumafusion for editing?
(Jeremyhippy) Looking for some advice. I just got two 2000 pyle 15's I have a 2000w amp for each sub "both in the same box with separate inputs but each speaker has 2 inputs how do I wire them
(ricardo coronel) 🙌🙌👏👏
(c1ockworx) A big YES please to the router video Mark! :-)
(Chase Leim) I was gonna build a ported box for 3 6.5 bdc4's down firing into the spare wheel space ported into cabin
(Edwin Viruet) My question is if the 10tw3 d4 requires a sealed box volume .519 cubic feet why would you used a ported box and much bigger than what it requires? And why? You are doing a fantastic job on your videos. THANK YOU.
(Franco L. Rojas) Great, this is exactly what I need, I have the same subwoofer in a Ford Escape. How can I get the blue print for this model made in the video that can fit on my car?
(casio56) I need help i have a 2017 ford fusion energi and theres a big battery in the trunk but i cant find a 12 ported sub box for it
(Jerad Cranke) +CarAudioFabrication Mark I noticed you use quite a bit of JL Audio products for speakers. Is this because of a sponsorship for the channel, you prefer JL over other brands, or something else? I'm just genuinely curious since I've never had that opportunity to listen to JL vs Rockford vs Infinity vs whatever other speakers/subs.
(tim King) Why does it seem like the boxes coated with the bedliner sound better than the carpeted boxes?
(amorton94) No silicone sealing of the seams? I thought that was a thing?
(amorton94) I've been trying to shoe-horn in a 15" sub into a boat for weeks now. Trying to fit it under the helm where the factory sub was in it's "enclosure" which was neither sealed nor ported, and fiberglassed into the hull. I've made 2 sealed enclosures so far based on manufacturer's recommended volume and neither have been able to fit. For such a simple hobby, this shit sucks lol
(amorton94) Damn! Looks at that spotless shop! I didn't know such things existed.
(Ram Lyfestyle) Love the work bench setups. Why two routers? Also where and what size are the dust collectors?
(cory dorsey) I have a 2020 Ram Limited with the Hardon Kardon 19 speaker with a 10 subwoofer. I'm looking for more bass. Can you point me in the right direction
(Fettucciniweeni) I need some help for anyone that could answer and I’ll try to be super specific. I have a 2011 Nissan Altima coupe with the upgraded 9 bose speaker package I installed 2 10in kicker comp r’s with a CXA1800 watt amp and kept my factory radio so I tapped into the right rear speaker with a PAC LP7-2 line output converter so when I turn my radio up past like 23 I get a slight weird noise out of the single speaker I tapped into. Its very minor and most people don’t notice it but I sure do. Any reason why this is happening? Should I hook up the extra ground wire (brown wire) on the lp7-2 or should I buy a ground loop isolated? Btw i use AUX not sure if that matters thanks!!!
(Charlie Hernandez) fantastic build its exactly what i need
(schafer240) Thanks for the quality content as always and your router attention to detail really makes me respect your work... keep it up and +1 for a router feature video
(Muzic shop Scott) Router video please...... and thank you I learn a lot watching this channel
(Brad Gilpin) I would like to see a router vid and I like the wood panel idea.
(Deeper Dive) It's a beautiful piece! Wish I had one in my fiesta 2019!
(No Itinerary Required) Love your videos - one tip from a woodworker learning about building sub boxes - When you used CA glue for the braces - one good tip is to use both CA glue and wood glue - you can use wood glue for most of the joint but leave a point on each end of the joint for CA glue. The CA glue acts as you wanted (quick solid connection when you didn't have a brad nail that would work), the CA glue then allows the wood glue to make an stronger bond for the remainder of the joint (with the CA glue acting as the brad or clamp as the wood glue dries).
(Bova246) That'd look sweet
(Chris Mcbride) Tht would be a good idea to show in wht all the bits of the rotor and how it works and I'm getting one soon and I wanna know witch ones I would use the most
(Dillion Calkins) I’d like to see that router video and maybe highlight what bits would be better for beginners to purchase because the cost of tools definitely adds up!
(Tibor Makai) I have installed the JL Audio sub in my spare wheel(spare does not have extra holes, just the 5 and the center hole), that I have sealed the holes, with a rubber seal and an aluminum 6" "washer", all bolted down to the car. Placed an MDF over the wheel, made the cutout for the sub and the speaker terminals and strap it, with two ratcheting straps. It hits haaaard. Spare has well over 1.3 cu/ft.
(Juan Lucas) Do you do any install in California
(Gussbuss Bustos) Router video please!! Brand, table, where to buy etc
(meborder noneya) Your shop is nothing short of amazing!! I love how you don’t have to double check the measurements on your table fence. Your attention to detail is outstanding in every aspect.
(Justin Murphy) Brother.... What an excellent video! I guarantee you so many people learned some new techniques, as well as the right techniques, from your descriptions and work. Real quick, what bit that you used with your router to add some depth as you took away material for your speaker binding posts? Thanks in advance and can't wait till the next video!
(Dave Hernandez) router vid definitely 👍👍
(SummerBRZ) Googly eyes make everything more fun...
(IMJUSTSAYIN82) I have 2 pioneer shallow mounts I’m gonna put under my seat haven’t installed yet but the boxes are sealed do you recommend a ported box or sealed for these speakers I like all music but also like deep bass when jamming to anything there’s not many vids that have comparison
(Robert Fattaruso) Really great video. Good attention to detail
(Thomas Shankings) Do you think this application could be modified to be a suspended rear deck bolted in fabrication for W220 Mercedes and other imports . I see your idea and like it and I also think that idea could take in some good cash when showing space saving sub woofer application. I’m Tony in Seattle Washington just thought it’s a very good version of your idea. Now if you make some money on that idea , just hook a fella up . Lol 😝 but seriously tho. I like your work 206SeattleTone#TownBiz!!!
(Richard Card) Yes make a router video please!
(Keith Craven) Are there any guidelines for how far the front of the sub shod be from the floor of the vehicle (other than greater than Xmax)?
(Keith Craven) Yes. A router vid would be great. Thanks!
(Mothra.B17) I see ya got a new Sawstop, awesome!!! I like that gray wood as an insert.
(Steven Thomas) Could you give a guide on how far off the floor a downward firing sub should be spaced. I know you can get gains and losses depending on how close they are.
(Blacked Out Honda) Where u located
(DJ - D20) Your channel sparked my deep dive into speaker building
(Humberto Jacquez) would you say shallow subs would be good for an sq build
(justkiddin1980) Love the build, would also love a video about routerbits and maybe a video if you do not have it about second battery’s with a stinger battery separator??
(raul bustos) I’d like to see that grey wood
(Glatze Dieter) New Video ? A Sub that you can throw out of you need the Space Well protectet and with a Grip .. a quick connection .. Protection of the end's with plywood :)
(Glatze Dieter) Is this Sub really so good ? I mean the Chassi
(Rich Miller) why do you pre cut out the speaker cutout with a jigsaw, and THEN use the router? Why not just use the router to begin with?
(Marc Cretten) Yes make the vid!!
(ATMDuRoMax) Router vid!
(J2 A) Want a challenge, do big bass small woofer in a convertible car I have a old hot rod third gen camaro and it’s challenging... any convertible is....
(brent moller) Could I bring a vehicle to you and have it done or pay and have you build me that sub box
(Erin Mc Loud) Great work as always. I was gonna bust your balls on using the miter sled and fence at the same time then noticed your little trick. Very nice! You show off good saw practice.
(Sean Determan) Router video would be awesome! Thanks for all your videos Mark!
(Daniel G) Dude what is that beat at 9:00
(rafeek sankar) good job bro hey what equipment to use for making all your song at one specific equlization
(Uri Geller) What about a video of making a sub for a convertible like the E46? The sub could play through the ski hatch. Would like to see some like this.
(Joe B) I like the idea of using the wood grain material as a inlay to create a more dramatic look. Personally I'd rather see a piece of carbon fiber (even a piece of formica covered in some 3M faux carbon fiber vinyl). I just don't care for "natural" materials in obviously high tech modern vehicles. I'd prefer high tech or modern textiles or maybe a sheet of brushed or polished aluminum. Maybe with your logo created in a high gloss polish and the area around it brushed. I don't know, you were asking for opinions and that's Just mine. Keep up the great work and great tubes, looking forward to the next one.
(FDMK) I'd like to do something like this for my wrangler, but I want it to look like a storage container with hidden subwoofer underneath. Ever do anything like that?
(Mike Casey) That would be very informative cause I’ve bought me a router but I’m not sure what all bits I need!
(joe vee) I'd use the wood, as long as it goes with the vehicle interior "theme". Looking go so far!
(chad alcock) I think the router video is a great idea!
(Tagert Southerland) Yes to the router video :)
(boosted16) You need to sell these things
(Bass Thrashin) Your videos are always great! You’ve come so far!
(sanjeev sing) Looking forward to the router video
(Robert Burky) Always wondered maybe you covered it before, what dust extraction system are you running?
(Truman Beal) As per always: flawless. Really excited to see how this one comes together!
(painedinks) The Mr. Miyagi of speaker enclosures! Always blown away by his craftmanship!
(That Car Kidd) Definitely use the wood material 🔥
(Bigge3415) Can you make a video on how to calculate air space and build a ported fiberglass enclosure? I have an 11 camaro ss and want to build a enclosure tucked into the side of the trunk space.
(Jarred Monaco) I was thinking of getting that exact sub from crutchfield. Would it be louder then a 10wo with a Rockford 500:1 mono amp
(Kevin Orellana) Hey mark what happens with your ryobi gig saw
(Stanley Nhongonhema) Nice
(Harvey600) Question for you, I have a Focal P20F sub I want to make a down firing enclosure for to go under the seat of my VW Transporter. X max is 10mm, how much clearance should I allow between the face of the sub and the floor? Thanks J
(Adam Yohn) How much to build me one?
(King Jayms) Any chance you can build and ship one of these bad boys over to me in Australia?
(Kris) lol you're such a perfectionist. You'd have nightmares if you saw my builds. Beautiful box nonetheless...
(Luke Trundell) I wanna see you make an accurate, quality subwoofer enclosure without using any powertools. Im sure a lot of people would feel empowered to design, build and install knowing they didn't need to own all the specialty tools. I mean, most people are only gonna do onesie/ twosies on the only vehicle they own so can't justify buying a router or a jigsaw!
(Darks D) I thought JL says the TW series isnt designed to play in a ported enclosure? Maybe that's just the TW5? But I was looking at the tw3 as well and all videos or forums where it was brought up always ended with JL professional or enthusiasts say don't. Either damage will be possible or they wont play to their potential. If not I'd love to see what you could do with a TW5 enclosure. :p I love mine and I'm tempted to get a second one but I'm trying to decide how I want to design the box to hide in my spare tire area. I wish I had a work shop like your to build in. You have some of the best builds and the tools that give you and edge are amazing. Cant like your vids enough.
(David Vaughan) nicely done. That's a lot of content in one video! I'm impressed.
(mahesh 0467) Nice, informative as always ❤️❤️ Bro.. have you ever tried to mount an amp onto roof through the headliner using a clamp or something and after fixing it, add a custom enclosure for the amp with lights and cooling fan etc. I am trying to do that with a soundstream Picasso nano 5 channel amp. Plz can you put your comments. Thanks in advance..💕💕 From India
(Prentice Fincannon) Yes on router video, specifically flush trim bits please. Straight flute versus spiral, why and when to use one or the other, I've only been using straight. Also, what would you call that type of bit you used at 9:10?
(Ben Green) I would definitely like to see that video about using a router
(Stimpy_ Dt) what happens if you carpet the inside of a subwoofer enclosure
(Stimpy_ Dt) what happens if you put a shallow mount subwoofer in a normal subwoofer enclosure
(Aperture x1337) lets see that router vid!
(Sean Goulden) I know this isn’t really your area but could you possibly do a center console build with speakers inside? I can’t find anything on making a custom console or any piece that’s as thorough as you.
(Aaron) genius.
(Chris Morrisey) that foam jacket on the wire I've sean you use a few times it seams kinda big so much wouldnt you have to fiqure it in your volume displacement?
(Sujoy Parui) Duel 10"subwoofer enclosure dimensions plz ......hard bass for indoor and outdoor
(TeA jAe) NICE WORK. Looks clean!
(William Price) I’d love to see a router video
(Maxime Petrov) Do trunk mounted subs not work as well in cars with a fuel tank separating the from the trunk? I've heard that the fuel tank will dampen the bass from the trunk a lot. I'm not looking for bone rattling bass, just a richer and Fuller sound.
(Jacob Little) I've been using a router table and trim router for only about 6 months and even now i keep seeing many different bits that i have no idea what i would do with them. I could also use some tips on different ways to use a router
(thebkg) 1. I'd LOVE to see you do a full Router vid. 2. Please do the wood inlay. That's something different than you've done in the past, which is always good! 3. Is that a new table saw setup? What table saw and vac system is that?
(Maui Sounds) Router video would be dope !
(Patrick Walker) Router vid and maybe a vid on basic fab tools when you live at an apartment or have limited space.
(YoungBeezy) Man I’ve been wanting 2 of these shallow jl subs for my single cab truck
(Matthew Conery) Could you include a video on how you decide on which router bit or profile you choose and how to properly set them up. Like how you make perfect round overs etc... that would be great.
(Skrapr) Router video??? Sounds perfect, I really don’t like routers, but I see a need in the future. So yes!
(Hoppy's junkyard rally) That box turned out SWELL! 😋 your box builds are always top notch Mark!
(Mark Potter) Serious question... in a 4 door pickup why are down firing subs under the back seat better that up firing subs?? What about a single forward firing? Wouldn't that be even better?
(Lars Eirikr) I would like to see you do a sub enclosure for a 5th Gen 4Runner. Your layered box you made for the Jeep turned out great, but I wonder if you could show us another solution that may be different. I had a custom fiberglass box in my older 4Runner and loved it, but that was a long time ago. I'm curious about a setup with 3 or 4 8" woofers, or maybe using shallow mount 10's could leave you with more options to make a box that is better hidden.
(Elmoskitz) Yes, make a router video
(daArchitect) Love these vids. Learn so much.
(Manuel Alejandro) really enjoy your content, I always learn something new. Nice vid, thanks for sharing.
(Jarrett Simoneaux) Sweet!
(David Falwell) I wanna see a more in depth router video...
(scareyclowns) Yes on the router vid
(Jeff Harris) If you need a box design, Mark is the way to go. Top notch design with detailed layout. Can;t say enough good things about the process.
(speaker zedan) Very refined
(HH Scott) Great video man. I haven't watched your channel for a minute, and you've definitely improved your skills IMO. That's the most professionally built car subwoofer I've ever seen I think. Very impressive! ✌️
(James Howlett) Not disrespect but are you Jewish?1
(Nathan Bennett) Really like the porno music
(Antarius Baugh) Can you do a video on how to install a second car battery
(rottdogsparky) Router video would be awesome but it's crazy to see you make it with 10K worth of tools makes me feel intimidated and I would like to see your dust vacuum set up
(HH Scott) I think the router video is a great idea. And if you do it. I think it would be a good idea to you use each type of bit, and show what it can do (what it looks like, and an example of a car audio use for it). So it's easy for everyone to understand what they all do. ✌️
(googoo gjoob) enjoyed the video. nice detail work. tasty idea on the laminated insert.
(Matt76cmich) I'd like to see a down firing single 12 (like a JL 12 TW3) for under the seat of a 2014-2019 crew cab Silverado....... Forgive me if you have done a video like this. Hoping to do something like this with components this spring.
(David Strusz) Want to see the video on th router video
(Dave Anzara) nice!!!
(Chris Winslow) great timing! I need to build a custom box for my 17 Silverado and my 8" alpine
(Phil B) Like I said before I dont under3why you dont have millions of followers. Your videos are the blueprint for car audio
(Mark Philpot) Mark, bring on that router table video. There are plenty of veneers you can use in that center piece. That’s up to you. I have seen this done in homes where the sub was made up to look like furniture. High end clients willing to pay for slick work. Your skills are right in line with that! Roll it!😊👍🏻
(Damion Zuniga) Router video would be awesome
(reck965) Wonder if he will do one for a sxs
(Ibbz) Dude you are so passionate about this, why not make home audio videos and tutorials as well?
(Air and Space Art) Nice
(Jeremy Barry) 100% want the router vid
(jonathan ramos) I would love to buy a costume sub for my car
(Old Silk Hat) Mark, does it matter what type of subwoofer is used. I have a sub in a sealed box, can I use it in a ported box with good results?
(Diehard) Yes, please, do the router video!
(Trapperjohn1000) Slick stuff there bruh. A1
(Leon Sullivan) What’s the size of your workspace, before you started adding cabinets and toys?
(Charlie Barrera) do a sound build on a single cab truck short bed plz
(Mike Ames) Yes aid love a video just about a router table. Thank you in advance
(fortyfukinseven) I've had an idea for a while that I think would be the best of both worlds for someone who wants to ground pound, but still wants some cargo space. I'd like to see a "wall" of shallow mount subs, laid flat on the floor of an SUV. Maybe 4 or 6 subs in a "wall" configuration. Either 4th order bandpass, or down firing (more or less the same concept). I don't care to take credit for the idea, I just want to see someone do it. Since you have sponsorship, maybe suggest the idea to a sponsor, and maybe give us a video. Keep up the good work.
(Danny Mccollum) Very nice
(PANTYEATR1) i have respect for the shallow woofers since i installed one shallow 12" in my 02 dodge ram quad cab. i will be using them more in the future for my other vehicles!💪
(E Dud) You got more router bits than Norm Abrams!🤣🤣🤣
(smokin joe) Nice build video. Thanks for sharing. How did you figure the air space needed under the box? Or, is it not that important?
(Jonathan Kim) I'd be up for that router video. Just picked up a Bosche router with table but have yet to use it very much. Also any thoughts on a quick disconnect subwoofer? For example, I know several people who are hesitant on getting a sub installed as it takes up a permanent spot in their trunk. It would be awesome if there was a way to make a quick disconnect subwoofer that can be removed in seconds and without tools. This would be for people who have a limited trunk space but don't want to compromise for a sub, for say like a road trip or when they really need to use all of their trunk space Another video that might be great would be best ways to secure subs in the trunk, especially for people who don't want to drill a sub into their car or make any other permanent modification.
(00felixb) Like first, watch second
(Luis Juarez) I need a custom box for 2 8” for a 2016 Jeep Cherokee are you be able to help me out?
(GUIDO FTC) yes do the router video and tell us speeds u use on different material
(Josh White) Don’t use that wood it looks like hardwood flooring
(Randy_bosss) oh boy
(Darryl Edmonson) Amazing!!!
(CurryMamma) Love it, been thinking about building a box like this in my BMW F20 118D. Today i have a regular sealed wedge box (30L) with a Dayoton Titanic MK IV but i'm a bit afraid of damageing the sub when i put stuff in the trunk :)
(Vigo327) I do wanna see that router vid..
(Vigo327) First. Neat.
