RE: new sub box - 1/1/2008 4:46:32 PM    hillbillyinOhio Posts: 2887 Status: offline get yourself a box calculator program like winIsd or bass box pro, or go to rockfordfosgate.com or reaudio.com and use their box maker.  Then put in the specs for the JL subs, including recommended airspace, thenadjust to fit in your truck _____________________________ MECP Master Installer 2007 Chevy Silverado Ext cab system to be determined 155.6 Best on the TermLab (in reply to felonyblazer96) Post #: 2

RE: new sub box - 1/1/2008 5:27:01 PM    cloak01ls Posts: 435 Joined: 10/27/2007 Status: offline 3/4" MDF is what you should use. Birch actually has better acoustical properties but costs around $40-50 a sheet, and can be more difficult to work with... This is a Decent box calculator for beginners. WinISD and Bass Box Pro are much better but they can be very confusing if you are not educated on speaker parameters and box building... http://www.subwoofertools.com/forum/ported-box.asp? _____________________________ 2001 2dr 4x4 Crimson Red... - Pioneer DEH-P5900IB - Hertz Energy Comps - - Sundown SAZ-1500D - DC Sounds Level-3 12" x2 - (in reply to 2002XTREME) Post #: 5

There are a boatload of other companies that have better products at much better prices.
