K So I know Im just doing alot of talkking people but its because I dont have supplies and I really wanna do a good job on these things as Its my first time and I dont like doing half *** jobs. I also Am not in best budget so I have to do things with not many tools, BUT I KNOW ITS DO ABLE! so dont give up on me aha. I know its not much of a build but If the box goes as planned it should be a sexy finished product. and With help so far from you Ive already learned alot and plan to keep learning. I hope to one day do my own HIGH quality spl intalls in vehicles and build enclosures without having to ask for port designs aha. Yeh I know I sound like a NEWB.And MIGHT take a while But Im looking forward to it and willing to learn

The problem with 2 15's in one box is you need a really BIG box.

That dependeds on how good you want it to sound. My Kickers say 3 to 5 cf, each. Bigger boxes are better for low freq. So, 6 to 10 cf for 2 subs, with the 10 being better.

Also depends on the sub.

These subs like 2.5 ft^3 each sealed. Building a 5.2 ft^3 enclosure, taking into account sub displacement, will work just fine. You will also have to account for displacement from internal bracing, so just add that to the 5.2ft^3.

Yah like Canadian bronco said, Im pretty sure if the sub has 5 mm xmax it wouldnt need a box that big, Well at least if it wasnt 5000W's :P

Just need to find a way to transport the mdf to school then Work should be in progress, I have to choose whether to make the box with and angle throw in, or to just make it rectangular. And what do I do about wiring, I dont have any bannana plugs or terminal plates. I think source by circuit city might have some.. Thats if they arent bankrupt yet lmao they were shitty anyways

I guess youd have ot make it pretty big just to fit that vent inside. Could always make an external vent =-D
