sub box

[zerg1024]

i am wondering if someone could build me or tell me where i can go to get a dual 10 inch sub box with .75 cubic ft. in each chamber for a good price and that will last a good amount of time.

Check out ebay.They have some good deals sometimes.Can probably get a good box with subs for price you would pay for someone building you a box. thumb

Personally, I would go to a local car audio shop for a box. A nicely fabricated custom box is underrated when trying to acheive desired bass. Also, if you choose to have a box custom made, inquire about coating the inside with fiberglass. This will drastically stiffen up the box and limit flex (harder, cleaner bass hits).

If you have access to some simple power tools, I recommend doing some research on the internet and building your own box out of 3/4" MDF. You'll get more satisfaction in having built it yourself and knowing that it was done right.

i would do it myself just if i knew what .75 cubic ft was in inches. like i dont understand that.

.75 cubic feet is the internal box volume. Like I stated above, get out and visit a few local car audio shops. Best Buy and Circuit City sell boxes.

I found a great website that might help you out:

Well, if a cubic foot is 1ft x 1ft x 1ft, then a cubic foot is 12in x 12in x 12in, which equals 1728 cubic inches.

Since you want .75 cubic feet, you want (.75 x 1728) = 1296 cubic inches.

Take the cubic root of that (or if you just have a plain old calcumalator take the number to the power of 1/3) and you get 10.90272356 inches.

So there you go! Build yourself a box with inside dimensions of 10.9" x 10.9" x 10.9". Use good 3/4" MDF, an appropriate sealer for the joints, and plenty of screws to hold it together tightly.

Or just buy a box wink
