Hi Guys,
I have a question regarding my sub enclosure. I would just like to know if this setup is going to sound ok or not. I have a custom box that was built for a 1996 Chevy Silverado Ext. cab, to fit under the rear seat. It is a sealed box with the subs facing forward and was a steal off of used Victoria for $40. Now according to the sticker on the back from the builder it has 1.7ft.cu. I have ordered a pair of RE Audio REX10D4 to put in it. I am hoping I have read the specs correctly and the subs will sound ok in there. The specs for the subs are:

* 10" Dual 4 ohm REX Series Subwoofer
* Power Handling: o RMS: 175 watts
* Impedance: Dual 4 ohm
* Mica filled poly cone woofer
* Santoprene rubber surround
* Pressed steel basket
* FEA Optimized motor structure
* Linear Conex spiders
* Rubber gasket
* High temperature 8-layer copper voice coil
* Powerful, single stacked magnet
* Sensitivity: 84.7 dB
* Mounting Depth: 5"
* Authorized Internet Dealer
* 1-year Manufacturer's warranty

REX 10D4" T/S Parameters:

* Electrical Q Value (Qes): 0.39
* Mechanical Q Value (Qms): 4.37
* Total Speaker Q Value (Qts): 0.36
* Free Air Resonance (Fs): 21.5 Hz
* Equivalent Compliance (Vas): 75.6 liters
* One-Way, Linear Excursion (Xmax): 12 mm
* Efficiency (SPL 1W/1m): 84.7 dB SPL
* Effective Piston Area (Sd): 322 cm2
* DC Resistance (Re): 3.2 ohm
* Nominal Impedance (Znom): Dual 4 ohm
* Thermal Power Handling (Pe): 175 W
* Force Factor (Bl): 15.4
thanks in advance for your replys.

hey anybody around these days?????

 

What size box do those subs need?

 

according to the RE web site max. is .05 each...

 

re specs are .5 cubes each and the subs displacement is .09 each. So, with two you are looking @ 1.18cuft. you would actually have enough room in that box for 2 12's sealed if they would fit/mount... or else maybe 3 10's.

If your set on two you might have a lil too much air space for sealed and need to remove some... or find room for a port out the side of the box....

 

hmmmmm,thanks for the reply. Now i maybe wrong but the sticker on the back of the box says it is 1.17cuft. Is that not good?? btw not enough room to mount 2 12". I thought about that but the face of the box won't allow it...

OH... your original post said 1.7cuft... 1.17 should be perfect for the 2 -10's sealed.

 

ahh right you are, sorry for that. I just checked again and indeed it says 1.17 cuft. so that is awsome. And thanks so much for your replys.
