How do I build a sub box?

How to build a custom sub box for 1995 peugeot 306?

  • i want the best specifications & measurements for the box as i have 2 12" pioneer TS-W306C Dual Voice Coil subs with a 2 channel 2500w (1250w*2) amplifier.. and also need to know which would sound better - Ported or Sealed? Ps. The car is a hatcback..

  • Answer:

    Completely disregard the dimensions of your cargo area. What you need to go by is the recommended sealed volume (you did ask what sounds BETTER!) that Pioneer gives for those specific subs and build a sealed box by those specs. You can put a cheapo-crap sub in the manufacturers' recommended box size and it WILL outperform even a top of the line sub in a non-optimized box. Have Fun!

Would be nice to know what model amp you have. I hope your amp can handle the speaker load. If you have the means to make you own box, go for it. It is quite a challenge. I would buy a pre-made box like Q-logic. You will need to take measurements of your trunk & see if it fits. See links below. Enclosure types: Sealed box — A sealed box is an airtight enclosure housing your subwoofer. A sealed box is best for any music that demands tight, accurate bass. Expect flat response, deep bass extension, and excellent power handling. Since a sealed enclosure tends to require more power than a ported box, use an amplifier with ample wattage for optimum performance. Ported box — A ported box uses a vent (called a port) which allows movement of air in and out of the enclosure chamber. This additional air movement reinforces low bass response. You get more output from a ported box than you would from a sealed box at any given level of amplifier output. Some people simply prefer the sound of ported boxes for rap, techno, or any hard-driving music because they play louder than comparable sealed boxes. Bandpass box — A bandpass box is a special type of ported box designed for maximum slam. The woofer is mounted inside a dual-chambered box; the woofer fires from the sealed chamber into the ported chamber, and sound waves emerge from the ported side. Because the sound that comes out of the port is extra loud within a narrow frequency range, bandpass boxes are considered super efficient. Their aggressive sound is popular with many hip-hop, techno, and metal fans. Without the dimensions of the truck, hard to be specific about design. There are box design book or computer programs. Save the headache and buy a box.
