going to get a sealed box built for 2 12 inch comp vrs i want it to fill the boot of my vitara and have the mids on top of it

is it possible for it to bee too big? illl just measure the most space in their and give the guy that

 

too big for what? lol. it really depends. on some sub, once you go TOO big, the enclose is defined as infinite baffle. that is, if the box is four times the complicance of the recommended size box. For the Comp VR they'll work good in a big box, except you reduce mechanical power handling, and upper bass frequency. But you do gain efficiency, smoother frequency response and a more accurate bass response.

 

hmm makes sense i guess, it won't be too big the back of my vitara is pretty small i want to face them forward though to stop all the rattling

 

Kinda Off topic but i saw a truck with 8 or more 12 or more inch subs using the entire box as a giant sealed enclosure! it was insane.

Yeah. It becomes infinite baffle.

 

Even if its not big enough to cause damage to the motor structure, large deviations from recommended enclosure size can drastically affect sound quality. If you are looking for a clean look you should build cover panels around a properly sized enclosure. This has the added benefit of providing space to hide things you don't wish to display such as wires, distribution blocks, etc.

 

ok so whats the correct size i have no idea i can never find any info for my w6 or the cmp vrs i plan to buy

oh well i saw some leathered sealed boxes down at the local shop today i was shopping they look good so i think i'll just buy 2 and **** the world

 

I think JL still has box specs somewhere on their website for the old W6s. If you can't find it navigating their site, try an internet search and the page might show up there. As far as the Kickers are concerned, the box info should also be on their website or it may also come with the subs when you buy them. If none of these work, go on their websites and look for technical support phone numbers and/or email addresses and give them a holla. Good companies like JL and Kicker are usually willing to help out their customers a little.

 

good point i bought the jl used id buy the kickers new id just show the box guy the manual and make sure he builds it correctly, ill be going sealed though as im confused about port size and lenght and all that HEADACHE AHHH! : hammer:
