    How much area for sound to exit from downfire box

    Buck, great idea. I did that tonight, and it actually didn't wheeze like a fat guy trying to run a marathon. I am going to put two windows that match the front 3 on each side and call it for now. Doxquzme, I am sure your plan would work as well, certainly better than what I am going to do. I...

    How much area for sound to exit from downfire box

    I am only around 18 square inches on my windows. It appears not nearly enough. I will work on opening it up tonight.

    How much area for sound to exit from downfire box

    I am sorry for the lack of clarity in the pics. The pic of it vertical shows the partition that was put it after the pic of me test fitting the sub in the hole was taken. I have some expanded metal that will fit nicely and still allow airflow. To be honest I never even thought of that. That...

    How much area for sound to exit from downfire box

    I am not for sure how to rotate the pics the correct way. I can cut the 3 areas near the speaker out, but the large area on the rear is part of the sealed enclosure. My pics are not great, and are before I finished assembling it. There are now 4 walls around the speaker and the speaker is in...

    How much area for sound to exit from downfire box

    I was not attempting to create a port, I was trying to build a sealed down fire box, but limit chances for the speaker to get damaged. I've only saw a few down fire boxes, and they all had a portion of the box that didn't touch the floor that the sound came out of.

    How much area for sound to exit from downfire box

    Thank you for the info. I thought that as long as the area for the sound to exit was large enough that the air speed was not too fast that it would be ok. The speaker sits 3 inches off the floor in an area just larger than the speaker diameter.

    How much area for sound to exit from downfire box

    I am building a downfire box for a single 10 for my side by side. I am down firing to keep it out of the elements and try to lessen the chance of damage from random flying objects I may encounter on the trail. I cut three 2.5" windows in the box for the sound to exit out of. I can make it...

    square body chevy under seat box

    My son daily drives a 86 chevy regular cab full size truck. With subs behind the seat, there is no room for storage. The cab is built with two large humps under the seat for the side saddle gas tanks. I am going to relocate the tank to the back between the frame rails where a blazer tank...
