10" Sub boxes make or buy

whats the best place to get a sub box from make one or buy one

its a db audio sub think its the DB Audio T-Rex model

 

depends on your skills / budget, but you cant beat a custom box,


tim

 

make and design it yourself

 

i can prob make one but it would be simular to a normal box u can pick up for 20

i duno how to figure the size and stuff thou my boot in the lupo is tiny too

whats the differnece between ported and sealed box's

cheers

 

the charactoristics of the sound produced,


a sealed box gives a quicker more punchy sound,


a ported box will be slower and drop lower,


what sort of music do you listen to?


tim

 

drum and bass or dancy/trance stuff

 

you will want a sealed box then, as the bass is rather quick in them,


tim

 

or a well built and designed ported one

 

true, but then it gets complex,


he isnt after a top quality set up, best to just keep it simple imo,


tim

 

this is the sub


750W 10" Dual Voice Coil Subwoofer
375W RMS
Textured Injection Molded Poly Cone
2" 4 Layer KAPTON Voice Coil
Custom CONEX spider
Chrome basket
Platinum spring release post terminals
magnet size 9"1/4' wide
magnet size 5"1/4'

Recommend enclosure:
Seal: 0.6 cu.ft @ 54Hz, 1.1 cu.ft @ 46Hz
Vented: 1.2 cu.ft @ 35 Hz

 

vent it
it'll be louder as well

 

is that quite a good spec for a little 10" sub?


found these on ebay about 15-30 for a box already made

ebay link

what power amp would be better for the sub and mabey to power some components too

 

TBH you might aswell buy one! Make sure it is made out of 18mm MDF.

If you're gonna make one it's gonna cost at least 15 including MDF/vinyl/carpet. Oh and there's the time involved.

For 20 I'd just get a sealed one that is to teh above specs.

 

so that aint that bad for the money then i priced a sheet of mdf today and its about 25
