yeah, you should have decided which subs first and built the box to those specs, instead of purchasing subs to the box's spec

your gonna need a box program and paramaters for the speakers to try and find out what sub is going to work weill in that box. nobodies going to give a enclosure size like that out on there subs. your best bet is to find a pair of subs u want to use then build a box for them.


if you havnt even ran the clarions in your box, how do you know they won't be enough for you?

What do you want us to say?

How exactly do you know it's not working as a free air setup? It might be and you don't even know it.

^^ Haha.. Never been to TermPro have you?

I couldn't say what he has/had/builds, but the guy definately knows stuff..

As for the topic. Aperiodic By-Chamber box's are designed on the overly large side. But you're supposed to make the box to specs of the subs, to the subs largest ported enclosure volume..You usually have to talk to the company for this, since they normally list the smallest requirements for an enclosure... I would think two 10's would be best(in regards to an ABC design) in like a 5-5.5ft^3 box.

Congrats on the box though, it looks good.. That's alot of port area though.

Holy smokes, someone other then Nate or Mark that knows me. Thanks for the kind words man. Do you post on TPRO at all? Sorry if you do, I probably know you, just VERY tired now.

Dennis, just call me Mike. I have noclue why the website doesn't work. There isn't anything on it at all anyways. Just some old pictures and other things that I use to host.

If you notice, I changed my sig. No longer wishing, actually have now. Getting ready to do 4 12" SX's with either 4 or 8 thousand watts in a CRX. Doing 2 15" MT's with 5000 a piece in my Cavi at some point. This all just depends on when I can take the time off work to do it. Getting very busy at work working 70-80 hours a week and just don't feel like doing anything when I get off. I'll make sure to buy a digital camera to take some pictures during the builds.

LOL.. "He knows stuff" ??? WTF? That sounds retarded.. I meant, "he knows his stuff"..
Anyways, yeah i'm on TPro alot, but I don't post that much really.. I'm TPSR? over there.. I had an account in 99, but forgot what it was.. LOL Back when the ABC box post first started, I learned alot from Dukk and Mr.Flamboyent back in the day.. So naturally, when something pops up about Cavy's, i'm ALL ears..
