• Determine the dimensions of your enclosure.

• Be certain the box dimensions that you have designed will fit in the location you have

chosen in your vehicle. Sometimes making a cardboard box with the same outside

dimensions is helpful.

• It is recommended to use ¾ inch thick MDF (medium density fiberboard) for your

box.

• Use a “T” square to verify precise right angle cuts before you assemble the box.

• Use high quality wood glue and screws to assemble the box to guarantee an airtight

box that will not come apart due to excess vibration and pressure.

• It is recommended for sealed enclosures to stuff the interior of the box about 50 –

75% full of fiberglass insulation or Dacron fiberfill for increased sound damping and

woofer performance.

• For ported enclosures, it is recommended to staple 1” thick fiberglass insulation to the

interior walls of your box.

• Use slide on connectors for spade style connectors or bare wire for push and screw

terminals. Do not solder the wires to the factory connectors as this may cause damage

to the voice coil or tinsel lead and may void your warranty.

The following page will give you a few different options to match the impedance of the woofers to the

impedance capability of the amplifier. Please look and follow the diagrams closely to insure maximum woofer

performance.
