You know those really loud songs that just slam on your subs? Well, in this flush mount install vid, I'll add a 2nd layer of wood to actually prevent box flex!

~ On the whole, this insane car audio sub box bass enclosure has been extremely tricky to make, and wicked easy to mess up. - both 4 seal & ported, 12 inch to 15 inch - these types of steree installations need a perfect circle cut out - - unlike those type-r subs lol - Cutting the speaker hole is the best part. yeah right - Learn how to build a sub speaker box by checking out my subwoofer box building videos for more enclosure making help! Tuning a sub box is the hardest part - ridiculous - and It can take years to master tuning by heart. But, if you make it just right, the songs will slam bass even louder than before, and each new track will be the greatest new feeling each and every time!

  • Hey Exo if I build a box like this for a car and it has a single 12 would I see any improvement over a back firing box? 1 seat would be folded down

  • @Evolover21 - This box does fire toward the back.

  • Wouldnt an extra baffle change the overall tuning of the box?

  • @conman12345678910 - Not if you add it to the TOP
