Started Building A Sub Box

[ozplanet]

I started building a sub box for my ram it is a regular cab and most of the prefab box just suck.

Going into the box will be 2 10" 300w RMS and 2 6.5"s 200W RMS subs. It should sounds good. :shock:

Almost finished building...

Covered the box in Leather to match the seats

Is it going inside the cab?

Won't the speakers be pointing directly at the back of your seat(s)

EDIT - NM - didn't know you were posting more pics.

Looks awesome, how does it sound?

I test fit the box into the truck so I can start my amp racks. There is a nice shelf behind the center console now. It was a tight fit. Next time I will remove all of the seats to make it easier to install. Plus, I need to install sound deading mat.

That is exactly where they point not many other directions to point a sub woofer in a truck. I still need to get a grill to cover the 10" subs.

You definitely need grills, your subs will be demolished if the rubber surround is touching your seats...

I used to have 3-12" audiobahn subs like that in a monstorously-sized box, oldschool ftw.

This was just a test fit, this is the first time I actually put the box into the truck. Everything was built measurement. You never know until it gets into it's place ;)

I am happy with the performance, hits harder than other box I had. The other box was 0.7 cubic feet this one is 1.5 cubic feet per sub. Plus having the 6.5 sub in there fills out the higher/mid range bass that I restrict on the 10" subs. Plus with the size of the box I also have the option of porting the box if I find the sub just can't hit those lower notes.

Overall so far at half power (only 1 amp and only 1 sub powered) there is a 2 fold increase of volume and bass.

I thought about what you said so I headed home and built a grill for the subs...I will post better pictures after the paint dries ;)

Here is the sub with the grill installed...
