Never apologize for the rain, it's a beautiful sound

[@realatlodlatuen]

I know this video is old, but thanks for making such a detailed video. I plain on making the same type of box for 2 6.5 inch ct sounds tropo subs

[@Randy_G]

I had a pair of the previous model meso 6.5 and hit 136 on 800 watts and sounded great.

[@nickn7939]

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.

[@defectahz6399]

What was the specs of your box

[@BassAddict91]

Great video as usual bro that is the next step I'm taking which is learning how to build a custom box. It's gonna be a learning curve but I'm down to learn

[@valorantorion1588]

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

[@potatojake197]

@@valorantorion1588 You could get by with a serrated butter knife, some rocks and a lot of patience but who's tryna do that? Some places can cut boards down for you but if you have access to tools it's worth it to build your own if you know how to. Just built my own in shop class and it sounds better than expected

[@nickn7939]

@@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.

[@Bobcatspiritdude]

Hey if helps , Down4sound sells Precut box kits , you just have to build it 😎👍 Because my issue would just be cutting the wood and getting it square and the correct ly measured cuts lol . Especially if you don't have the proper tools either 🍻cheers .

Love your videos,Parker ive been following and liking all your media oulets ever since you started expanding and growing.Also watch every single video you put out on KZbin like them as well. Keep growing Parker you give great info and content for all of us bassheads.

[@dailyfilmfix469]

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.

[@Bobcatspiritdude]

Cpuld also use wood glue when assembling, so you don't have to remove the screws 😊

[@Kid617]

Would mdf or plywood be better

[@nickstalhood5380]

Man id love that little set up!!!!

[@socal8.131]

i could be wrong but the specs you read were for only 1 6.5, so since you have to i think you were supposed to double the .5 cubes to 1.0 cube and the 12 inches of port to 24 inches. i could be wrong tho parker, box still sounds good tho!

[@cashisclay8474]

CT sounds Meso are killer, you gotta tryout the 12" subs. I had mine going on a year and they're still going strong, but I know you really know how to test a subwoofer.💯😂

[@DIYAudioGuy]

Nothing quite like a good box build video!

[@ChaosTherapy719]

Man Parker, them 6.5s sound clean!! And you can pride yourself on making the enclosure yourself too!!

[@gregblau8082]

I use their mobile site. It doesn't have all the features but works pretty well. I built a box very similar to that but with the sub and port on the small end for an 8 and it's only 3-4 db below the few 12's I've tested

[@1ohmwrecker]

CT Sounds be hookin you up!!! Those are dope lil subs! I've got one of the CT Sounds Bio series on my 7.2 home surround sound! It'll play 20hz fiercely in my living room!🤣

[@travisabrahamson5092]

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.

[@martinramirezmi5457]

So a 20 cubic foot box ought to sound twice as good then. Right?

very cool little box glad to see another basshead building his own boxes same as I would very cool another great vid man thanks also nice bike I still ride my older R6 and love it I have a 2020 R1m as well but I ride the 6 alot more around town and to work

[@snaxxx1379]

Wow and here I thought it was complicated to build a box but with that software made it easy

[@m_spl66]

I love how detailed you explain everything. Love your videos bro❤️

[@fishrrelaxing9361]

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..

[@cali8221]

Damn sound like u know ya shit..but u ain't have to shine on him like that lol

Dude I gotta say I look you up every other day to see what's new. I like your channel I've been trying to figure out a under seat box in a f150 ex cab with 10 or 12 I just ain't got it right to be a bass monster

[@Ronco160]

Def use wood glue to bond the joints together and if u need something to seal use caulking after. I prefer titebond 3

[@RJSDZNS]

Me to bro! Clear silicone on the inside.

[@clementbraden4022]

Pretty wild to see that you put this out, I bought this exact setup when they first released the new 6.5 but I’m just now installing them. Might build a very similar box

[@jonadkins9339]

I've used this site before. Made a box for 4 American Bass XD 15s. Sounds good and knocks pretty hard.

a great part about this site is once you make your box it changes the web address so you can save it as a favorite page and just go back to your box from the link.

[@Laserred01]

Only problem with that subboxpro site is it appears to be limited to basic rectangle boxes and nothing besides sealed or ported. I'm trying to design a wedge/trapazoid style box, so this is only partially useful.

[@ctl46]

Not sure why I'm just now seeing this video, but yes being able to design style box would be awesome!

Awesome video brother like always them little subs with that new box look great an I follow you on all pages And subscribed the Sundown X12 is a Beast and if I didn't have kids them subs would be the subs I would own right now stay up man keep on keeping on 🤙🏼🍻

[@johnnyjohnz1992]

I love this video, i did the same dimensions you did. , however i think you should make another box with a bigger port area such as 11- 12 squared. I noticed it creates a-lot of air , what do you think. Its worth a try and see what are the differences in between both boxes.

[@ParkerTheBasshead]

I agree a bigger port would not have hurt! It sounded good in my car but definitely a little port noise when I had it in the garage

[@johnnyjohnz1992]

@@ParkerTheBasshead i just built another box , i can say that its little punchier but we have to remember its only a 6.5, it was worth the experience.

[@codyharrelson89]

In winisd it show the port area should be atleast 18sq.in. but 22-24sq.in. looks the best for the 2 subs in that size box

Making boxes isn’t hard it’s actually fun and really doesn’t take to long. Unless you have to build one INSIDE a vehicle that’s tricky but it’s just one level up from building a box outside the vehicle first.
