Ok, I bought a 12’’ JL W6 off LAFENGAS like 6 months ago and I’ve finally decided to get everything installed. I need a box for the thing and they want to charge like 100 bucks at stero shop for one. I am asking anyone out here if they have one I could buy for cheaper or even make one (I heard they are simple I just suck at that kinda stuff). Pleasee let me know, thanks!

But you need to have particular air gaps n such (from what I read offline). I am not good at reading the prints they give and applying it which is why the thread also says WANTS TO HIRE.

mdf board works best. typically, the bigger the box, the deeper the bass tones.

honostly, i just tossed one out this morning before i left for work. but make sure your amp has proper outputs, otherwise it wont give you the sound your looking for. what kind of car are you putting this into, is there a size limitation, or shape limitation?

Not to hijack, but Would a tuned box help my little subs sound better/ louder? I have the MTX road thunder thing, 2 12’s and the box it came with is ok, but would a custom tuned box be better?

a correctly built ported/vented inclosure will be 3dbs (in theory) louder than a correctly built sealed enclosure. 3 dbs to the ear again in theory is twice as loud
