  1. Hey bro...love your vids. Killer builds and awsome tutorials. Do you have a email I can contact you...I have some questions on a box build and setup I have. Please help...!!!
  2. Thanks Bass Bee
  3. How did you Calculate the 45s corners? or did you just slap them there without any calculaions assuming it wont affect tunning of box
  4. Nice video and that box calculator is sweet. Do you know of one that shows the box like this one but is for sealed? I have a small regular cab truck and want to run one 10" sealed.
  5. Awesome build
  6. probably got cancer from this build alone breathing in mdf like that! hope not
  7. seal boxes only sound good when they are in a tight spot. You got to have breathing room for a ported box to sound good. Seal boxes always sound good to me though. I got a 2 15 box in 65 impala and it sounds damn good.
  8. I'm about to build yet another box, a nd thus time I will be using the re box calculator!! Thanks yet again exo!!!πŸ”ŠπŸ”ŠπŸ”ŠπŸ”ŠπŸ”ŠπŸ”ŠπŸ”ŠπŸ”ŠπŸ”ŠπŸ”Š
  9. sounds like leafy
  10. all subwoofers should stay in ported chambers so they will not fight each other meaning they will provide cleaner bass in my listening and experiments
  11. I want a speaker plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
  12. i have 2 12' kickers and the stock box doesn't fit in my camaro, just by a couple of inches, will it affect anything if i cut and angle it different in one side?
  13. what if i want to put port in middle of box and a woofer on either side of port, will the port still be the same size with same gap in between?
  14. the bass bee had me trippin
  15. This is the way: you are making something simple of something that would appear to be hard. Gave me a dejavuΒ  about Hyezmar’s woodworking plans online, have a very good one!
  16. Hey...I also have a Ryobi power circular saw.....works great..
  17. rybi is dest
  18. does he reply to any one on here watz up
  19. Like ur videos looking forward to the wall project finished. I'm doing something similar in an 03 suburban with an all pioneer system maybe, that's replacing the bose system in it from headunit to speakers, sub & amp. Now trying to understand wat ur describing on this build & going by this I'm using tat conculator & the difference to get a tuned 35hz box with one 10"I have to go 20.0wX16.5hX14.5d according to this conculator gives me 35.4hz is this right, & I'm using 3/4 birch do I need to double this? Also if I wanted to put 2 10's instead of 1 do I double the with to 40" will this work thanku in advance wait for your reply
  20. need the cut list
