BUILDING THE ENCLOSURE
Determine the dimensions of your enclosure.
Be certain the box you have designed will fit into the location you have
chosen. Sometimes making a cardboard box with the same outside
chosen. Sometimes making a cardboard box with the same outside
dimensions is helpful.
Use 3/4 inch thick Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF) or High Density
Particleboard. It is preferable to cut the wood with
Particleboard. It is preferable to cut the wood with
a
table saw to ensure
straight, even joints. If a
table saw is
not available, a circular saw is
acceptable.
Use a “T” square to verify precise right angle gluing.
Use a high quality wood glue and air nails or wood screws to assemble the
enclosure. Elmer’s@ woodworker’s glue and Weldwood@ work well. To
guarantee an airtight box, seal each inside joint with RTV silicone glue.

For Sealed Enclosures, stuff the chamber with 50-75% filling (approximately
1.5 pounds per cubic foot) of fiberglass insulation or Dacron.
For Vented Enclosures, staple 1 inch thick fiberglass insulation or Dacron to
all walls of the enclosure except the baffle to which the woofer is mounted.

Use slide-on connectors to attach speaker wires (SS-8). Do not solder wires
to the provided terminals as this may cause damage to the factory wire
connection. This may also void the speaker’s warranty.

SUGGESTED ENCLOSURES
The following designs include a variety of enclosure types.
Each
design has a frequency response curve that shows predicted output
with 2.0 volts input, measured at meter. 2.0 volts across a 4ohm load
corresponds to 1 watt per speaker. Also, each frequency response
curve was generated using a 12 dB/octave low pass filter at 100 Hz.
The performance of each of these enclosures will be different once
with 2.0 volts input, measured at meter. 2.0 volts across a 4ohm load
corresponds to 1 watt per speaker. Also, each frequency response
curve was generated using a 12 dB/octave low pass filter at 100 Hz.
The performance of each of these enclosures will be different once
installed in a car. The amount each enclosure will vary depends on the
car and installation location. The “standard” curves given correspond
to performance outside the car to help you visualize relative
performance differences. Read through the descriptions given for
each enclosure and select the one that suits your needs.
