SUBWOOFER BOX MODS! Adding custom templates & logos - 13W7AE Box Build

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

When we build a custom subwoofer enclosure the outside finishing methods we use will help set it apart. In this video I add custom beauty panel shapes to the front face of the 13W7AE subwoofer box we are making. This includes using templates, the router, router bits, and even adding custom logo emblems to the sub box! Enjoy!

    Listen the man knows what is talking about he's not flexing he earned it and is showing if you work hard and understand what you're doing and learned from mistakes and what others teach or show you that works and make it better. Much love for people that teach cause I feel it makes things better and easier.

    Hi Mark How are you? Like the videos you do. Makes me think about the stuff I used to do (wrongly!) and how much better it could have been. But young, low budget and trying to make some money off others with low budgets…. Can I ask, what size is your cnc router? I’m in the process of buying one, but the ones I can afford are online so I can really get a feel of suitability. What you do would be bigger than I intend so figure that is a good idea to copy. If I ever go and do sound system installs again I’ll get one of your designs and can use it to cut. Thanks! By the way - dark emblem on grey vinyl would be my vote

  • @FMATTV1986

    Great videos brother as always. Had a question for you that I needed help with. It's about amplifier power matching to speakers. Why when Dyno testing amps with sine waves we get the rated power usually but when testing music, we get about like Half the rated power. Should we then buy an amplifier that is double the power for the speakers to get the most from them? Eg. Dyno on amp sine wave 1khz 500 rms. Midrange speaker is 500rms continuous. But when playing music, the amp fluctuates around 200 to 250 rms music power. So should I get an amp that is like 1000rms so the music power will be around the 500rms continuous for the speakers ? Thanks for any feedback.

    You could use Birch but it’s not that much lighter than MDF. A single 3/4” box like this weighs less than the sub itself!

    @Bfraz00 Well, a customer of mine is a professional carpenter/kitchen builder. I didn't have the time to make my own box. I asked him to build me an 80 liter birchply box for my two Morel Ti124's. It's really quite lighter than MDF, which I normally use. The reason I asked for birchply was that it's more water-resistant compared to MDF, and I've been told it's as strong, if not stronger than MDF. I sincerely assure you it's lighter than MDF.

    @@umtbozkr2358 typically audio builders use 13 ply birch and a 4x8’ sheet of it is only a few pounds lighter than MDF. It’s so minor most folks don’t even bother. In the grand scheme of an audio build if you’re looking to shave every last pound you wouldn’t be adding a large subwoofer box anyways. And none of my components are subject to water intrusion so that’s a non-factor for most applications.

    @Bfraz00 You're right, and that's the reason buying a powerful car to compensate the extra weight. We are talking about the material of the sub box. What about soundproofing? You can't imagine how many people use MDF for speaker adapters. My main reason for birch was the weight, durability, and the strength op birch in comparison to MDF. I have been in car audio since 1995, so 28 years. You like MDF. I'm fine with it, but I don't agree.
