damn, didn't know 6.5's could get that loud, i don't think they can carry very far though. I notice the smaller subs can be pretty darn loud in car b/c they use the car as a box almost, but rattling high rise office windows from across the street you need cone area for just the distance though, i'm not for certain i kinda pulled that out of my butt, i just know bass is weird like that.

If you don't have the proper tools its hard im still learning but its not easy at all not to discourage you or anything its just a very hard thing and takes a lot of time and effort to learn even with the right tools sometimes but I have a small table saw so I am only able to use a circular saw on pices over 10 in

@@valorantorion1588 You could get by with a serrated butter knife, some rocks and a lot of patience but who's tryna do that?

@@valorantorion1588 i'm in the same boat lol, i got a table saw, and a jig saw, but then realized it's a huge learnign curve, and you forget to buy little stuff like clamps or proper screws. Most i have accomplished is converting existing boxes to fit different size boards, i converted skar's dual 8 to fit 6.5 subs, stuff like that.

Great job on the box! I have no doubt that it hits clean and hard for two 6.5 inch subs. As you continue to build enclosures, maybe consider getting a Kreg Jig. You can hide your screws and countersink them then plug the holes so you don't have to remove any screws when routing the edges. I would go with Duratex to cover the enclosure with because it's so easy to use and looks great plus it seals it from any moisture.

I find the manufacturers recommend enclosure sizes to be way off. When you enter t/s parameters in enclosure molding software, it paints a very different picture. I'm running a scar 18 and they called for 2.75 sealed and 4 ish ported . After modeling it needs over 10 feet ported and between 4-8 sealed. I tell you it is allot better in the bigger boxes by far.

Been using this program for a while.. but you’re going to have a lot of port noise running a port like that based on 9sqin on 6.5’s.. I could put this in other programs and check this but you should be no less then 1sqin per diameter of sub as a baseline standard.. with two 6.5’s the smallest you should be is 13sq and even then depending the size of the box you’re going to have port noise.. given the cubes of that box you most definitely are.. I’d have played around with .33-.5 cubes checking the response and tuned the port based on the response I wanted not what they recommend.. that box should most likely be .33-.4net per tuned to 35 to get it to play how one would actually want it too with a solid +3ish port boost and slow drop off. With what you did to that port sizing you just returned that box from 47 or whatever it was to like 54 lol.. you just made a very expensive mid base box that will generate a lot of port noise and likely be very peaky and boomy around the tuning with I’d guess a +6 at 54.. that is not a good build at all man and you know this.. this is first timer newb shit you posted right here..
