Enclosure for car

digitalaudio · 6th August 2003, 09:33 PM

What would be the best enclosure to build for inside a car? I want maximum SPL, no SQ. I am only interested in the HIGHEST SPL Possible, oh and it can not be above 100 Hz, I would like it to be around 60Hz. I was thinking of a karlson or I was told about a W loaded enclosure, I have no idea what that is. Any help would be great. Oh and by the way the car is a dodge caravan.

lemme guess, youre into usac or iasca...well my friend there are many ways to go...the easiest is to build a BIG(10+ ft^3) box and tune to around 70-74 hz...the res freq for your car is probably 75 or 70 hz...so tune about 5 hz lower than whatever your res freq...cross sectional area of vent should be roughly 1.5 times sd...use 1 ohm stable amps and you can go more power in less wattage classes...you can email me all questions as i did usac and did 151.8 on the dash in 151-300 stock... email is nktpolk401 at aol.com...i installed for a while too so feel free to pick my brain...
