Help with custom sub box .
Hey everyone.
I am sick of my sub box down in cabin of my boat
Two 12" sub. Dvc 4ohms. Facing front of boat.
Leaner power 5002 on 2 ohms
First question , would it hurt if box had a V on the bottom of box?
Or would I need to make it the bottom flat and put my divided in the middle? Fiberglass top and front ,put a angle on front .
Idk how to finger out air space with a down word angle like that .
I just don't want to build it and be short on air space.
Should I use
Fiberglass or plexi glass and how thick.
Thanks

Try running the subs in a more "musical" configuration and attempt a higher Impedance load, like 4-8 Ohms.
Making the sub cabinet asymmetrical is ideal, and a "V" or "cone" shape is ideal, akin to a "Transmission-Line" cabinet.
Wood is preferred, and using different types of wood, helps eliminate cabinet resonance, as does bracing. Thickness will depend on bracing/power. If using in Marine application, "sign board" works best. (same wood lamination as the highway signs)
As a side note, have you considered smaller subs? or Are you trying to break your boat with sonic resonance, while scaring any fish away for miles?

maybe he burbs in the middle of the lake than rakes all the stunned fish... btw if you have a troublesome box dimensions or curvatures you can just put a big bag inside and fill it with water to measure the volume
