I have a 10" Bravox UXP DVC 4 ohm sub. I would be running it from a 4 channel amp - one voicecoil per channel (300rms total). It will be going in the back of my 98 wrangler behind my rear seats, so space is limited.
My max dimension are 35" wide, 10.5" deep, and 12" tall. Tuned to 28hz-34hz? And box around 1ft^3?
I believe this sub can be either ported or sealed, but I have always had a ported enclosure, so I'd like to stick with ported.
For those that would rather not click the link:
Power Handling (RMS) 300 Watts

DC Resistance (Re) 3.6 + 3.6 ohms
Voice Coil Inductance (Le) 0.97 mH M
echanical Q (Qms) 7.33
Electromagnetic Q (Qes) 0.47
Total Q (Qts) 0.44
Compliance Equivalent Volume (Vas) 1.48 ft.³
Maximum Linear Excursion (Xmax) 8.0 mm
Thanks for anyone that tries this. I do not understand how to get the right tuning frequency for a ported box. I hope someone is able to whip this up in just a few seconds/minutes. It would be much appreciated.
Honestly, I don't really care. Whichever is easiest or that you think would sound the best. I'm no longer going to the extremes with car audio, college is taking priority.
Slot is probably easier but I have lots of pvc pipe lying around in my shop also, so your choice.
Thanks hopefully this box will sound great. I'm just worried about it firing right at the tailgate, but I don't have much choice with my wrangler for box options lol
I don't think that box design will work with the port that close to tailgate. If the port went up, then it would work fine - is it possible to just make that change to the box? Also I miscalculated and it can only be 33" long with it being that tall and wide. I'll get a picture of the space in a minute
EDIT: Here is a picture of the space I'm talking about - maybe it'll help. As you can tell, I could get more room if I did a slanted box but I assumed those were harder to design, I wanted to keep a rectangle. Although it doesn't bother me on building it
I think your not reading the specs for a ported box? It has a ported @ 1.64 tuned to 32 hertz. Sealed is .63. Here's some links to port calculations...Port Length Calculator for sloted and Products Menu for tubular.
Which direction should I have the sub face? Towards the front, rear, or up?
EDIT: I think I'm going to mount is on the side, that way it gets plenty of air. My dimensions I came up with are: 12" tall, 10.5" deep, and 10.75" wide/long
Another Edit: I forgot to factor in the .75" of the wood, so I lengthened it to 15.25 inches instead of 10.75" to come up with .75195 cubic feet for the interior volume
