You can take the spec sheet from the website to that shop and ask them how much to build you that box.....even if it costs twice as much it will be worth it.....:smilie_da If that's too much, a sealed box around 2cuft will work OK with your sub, doesn't need a subsonic filter and they probably sell them for less than the ported ones......the sealed box will sound better than the wrong size ported box will.

if you have the ability to, get the local audio shop to build the enclosure that the Diamond Audio website suggests...
and to others... is it just me or does that suggested enclosure from diamond audio look like a T-Line enclosure? |

I bought a ported box today and hooked it up wasn't that much different them my sealed box although now I keep the sub a 4 instead of 8 or 9 and alot more things rattle in my car but doesn't sound that much louder.

Thats because like the others said pre fab boxes are very limited in performance. If you want to notice a substantial diffrence in the speakers performance you have to have one built for you or find a pre fab very close to the recommended specs of the manufactuer.

If you get HD to cut your wood, check the dims of each piece as they do it.....they are not known for exact cuts at the best of times, some of their people know how to work the panel saws better than others. I usually just get them to make the major cuts and do the rest myself.....:smokin: Have fun building the box, it's a good feeling getting it done and listening to the results when you do. HTH |
