Building my sub box

[HuskeyVR]

hey there guys

i've got a vr sedan and im in the process of panning the sound system
i've already got 2 Alpine type x 10" subs that run 500-1000 rms with peak of 3000
and ive just been out and priced up everything else, i now need to get someone to build or to build myself a sub box.

however im not looking to mount the subs parralel to one another, i pan to have them facing on a 90 degree angle to face inbetween the middel seat where it drops down.

does anybody knwo if there is a place in townsville qld that would make it, or does anyone have any tips on how to make one?

So its going to be a sealed box?

[HuskeyVR]

yep sure is

[acarmody]

Well first off the subs will need a decent amount of wood around them to support the weight, so they won't be as close as your rough picture. Also are you planning on dual chambers or single chamber?

[HuskeyVR]

yeah i figure that, the diagram what a 5 min job was finding it hard to describe with just words lo. and yeah ill probs go dual chambers

edit: it could be pretty simple to make yourself, make a box with no end lol, then just make a v out of wood so its like [ \ / ] and mount the subs i the middle (obviously not to scale :P but u get it yer?)

[acarmody]

Wow Alpine recommend some small boxes for this sub, 0.5-1 cu.ft each sub. Reverse mount these puppies, will look so much better.

[HuskeyVR]

nah will be too much f***in about getting them to fit, just gotta try work out the dimentions before i start making them. gf's doing a bachelor in maths at uni, i'm sure she can heklp with that lol

[acarmody]

What do you mean 'to much ####ing around'? It easy as piss, put foam on front of sub, screw in, done.

[HuskeyVR]

if im gonna get them mounted where they can be seen they're not gonna fit, their big subs and the gap in the back seat isnt overly big.

[acarmody]

Ah so your going to fit them around the fold-down centre seat, so people can see them from the cabin? Ok I understand.

[HuskeyVR]

yeah, want them to be seen but can hide them easily if i leave the car somewhere by putting the fold down back up, plus im guessing ill get a much better sound out of them if im not running them through a metal plate and a couple of inches of foam

the subs can be that close to each other, there's plenty of support there.
