2010 SCrew Box Build
 

Started building a subwoofer box for my brother's truck a couple weeks ago and am just about done - been working on it sporadically since I've been busy with school and work.

The box is for a pair of Infinity 860w 8" subs. It will be .95 ft^3 tuned to ~30hz which will yield an F3 of 29.5hz - should play plenty low with cabin gain.

Dimensions - 6" H1 x 8.5" H2 x 12" D x 34" W

All I have left to do is mount the subs and test for any leaks and then carpet it.

That looks good. What are the angles of the cuts? With that information plus your dimensions and pictures, you have made life sooooo much easier for someone contemplating building a box.:thumbsup:

Make sure you put speaker grills on. I would hate to accidently kick a hole in one

I used a circular saw and I think it was 15 degrees for all angled cuts - couldn't find my protractor so I didn't measure them.

Got the box finished up...

Should get it installed next Friday in my bros truck. It'll be powered by a JL 500/1v2 and we'll be using the PAC OEM adapter.

Looks good. It should kick!:thumbsup:

Any pictures with it installed in the truck? Also, does the seat fit all the way down and lock with it in place?

Super crew seats don't lock down. They are loose when down and lock in the up position

Great job, how do you get the carpet to look so good and seamless, always had trouble wrapping boxes.

Damn that looks nice..How much does that box weigh?

I appreciate the compliments! Sorry, no pics in the truck but it fits perfectly and sounds fantastic. More than enough output. My bro loves it!

I don't know how much it weighs, but it's really not very much since I used ply. MDF will be a bit heavier, but it still manageable for removal.

Carpet takes some work to get the hang of and you pick up tricks over time. This is probably the 8 or 10th box I've built over the years that I've carpeted. Charcoal seems to be the most forgiving when it comes to seams compared to solid colors. A good sharp knife to trim where the edges all meet is necessary - I like to use the utility knives with the snap off blades.
