Again. Have someone else double check. Or look at the FAQ that is posted in the top on this forum. There is a link to a enclosure calculator. But to the best of my knowledge, the cut number that I gave you will get you a sealed box for a pair of 12s, each with their own enclosure getting about 1.1 cubic feet of space BEFORE subwoofer displacement.

 

Alright I got it. I made some measurements and now I am going to go buy the wood. Is there a certain kind of wood that is better than others or can I just go buy a sheet of pine wood.

Also when I have the box built is it better to put some stuffing inside of the box. Does this give it a better sound?

Thanks

 

Those numbers are based off of .75" material. I have never worked with anything other than MDF. I suggest that. Buy a sheet of .75" MDF.

You dont need stuffing in the box.

 

Alright thanks

 

good luck. hopefully it'll come out nice. are you building a sealed box?

 

Definitely use MDF!

 

MDF is wood right?? Because I have asked like 5 people if that was wood and they all said that they didnt know..Yes I am building a sealed box

Thanks

 

Medium density fiberboard.

Home Depot or Lowes carry them. They are about $20 for a 4 x 8 ft sheet.

 

if it's gonna be sealed, fill all the corners & such w/ silicone sealant. that'll makt it air tight... very important.

 

Yea i was planning on doing that...

Thanks
