For you subwoofer box Guru's

[killer20072001]

Im lookin to build a subwoofer box for 2 15" soundstream T5-15's. I have the whole back of the yukon avalible. If anybody could come up with some box dementions that would be super helpful. Here are the subwoofer specs.

ive been messing the re and rockfords box calculator.
getting different numbers with both though.

 

[AV8ter]

RE's calc is bang on. A lot of debate about it but it is correct.

??? i used the exact specs with both and re said the box was only like 7.8 cubes but the rockford one showed 11cubes. ??? i had a a software from termpro a few years ago that was on point

im not much of a Guru but my friend is and he sent me to this website to calculate how to wire my subs to get the ohm load i wanted. it also has several enclosure calculaters that are very much in depth. i dont undrstand most of it but maybe you guys will......

Is that HxWxD

 

[platour22]

L X W X H = / 1728 / number of subs

Example with 2 subs:

49 x 21 x 30 = 30870 / 1728 = 17.86 / 2 = 8.93 cuft per sub.

This is non chambered. chambered box have to be calculated on both sides.

This is also sealed. If you wanted a ported box you have to determine what you wanted it tuned to ( 35hz) then calculate the port displacement.

after having some pros tell me how to calculate box volume and showing me using a app, i found out the re calculator is a little off, but as much as 7hz off too. thats not good when i want a box tuned to 38hz and it may end up as high as 45hz.

be sure to calculate wood thickness too
so if the box is 49L, internal volume is really 47.5. thats if each side is 3/4 mdf. if its thicker, you have to calculate that

Whew I was thinkin that was gonna be one tall ass box. Thank you guys for your input its all very helpful. That link that lilsolo68 posted has a calculator for port tunning, and yes I plan on putting in a port was gonna go with 3/4 mdf also.
