    get a tube of caulk in the “no caulk gun needed” tube. Then you can reach everything.

    would a 10w3 sound good in a box 1.6 ft3 sealed for better lows but still the sound quality?

    @Ericec4126 sealed boxes are much smaller than ported boxes, displacement = 1.375 cuft sealed

    I have a 12 w7 and can’t find my spec sheet do you think you could help me out with what the cubic feet is for that speaker? Will the cubic feet change if it’s a sealed or a ported box?

    @xkaosu9x Wrong again my friend… Vas is the volume of air that offers the same degree of restoring force on the cone as that of the cone’s suspension. Sorry to break it to ya..

    @xkaosu9x Not true my friend. If you’re making a one cubic foot box, you would have inside dimensions of 12×12x12. If you only compensated for height and width you would have inside dimensions of 12×12x10.5.

    Cool! not bad for a youtube video!!

    also, the speaker’s spec sheet should list the Vas of the speaker, which the is the volume displacement. by adding the Vas to the required enclosure volume you can calculate the dimensions for a true match rather than rounding your length and winging it.

    all of this is nitpicking for a small enclosure, but when you move up to larger speakers you can really throw off the Qtc and make the box sound like crap.

    if you’re already accounting for the thickness of the wood in your height and width then you should not be adding it to your length. by accounting for this in the side pieces you’re using them to bookend the main chamber, so no additional length is needed; your length is your true length, not just interior length. so in your demo the length should be 8.8 inches. by adding the additional length of 1.5 inches you’re creating a total volume of 0.3546 cubic feet
