We make a box for the subwoofer with our own hands

There is a car, but the music does not suit. What to do? First and foremost, we need a high-quality music center, and also a powerful amplifier with appropriate speakers, the so-called subwoofer. In the box they can be one, two, and three.

What kind of subwoofer box can we do with our own hands ? For some reason, many do not like the store subwoofers. Or the sound does not suit, or are expensive. In a word, we will do it ourselves.

We need to come up with a form of saba, size, design, and then all this to realize. I think that it is not worth talking about the fact that it is necessary to purchase high-quality low-frequency dynamic or dynamic heads. This is understandable, without speakers there is no subwoofer.

The most optimal and universal is the case in the form of a truncated pyramid. It is noteworthy that its back wall is made with a bevel at 23 degrees. This is due not to the peculiarities of the sound of the device, but to the design features of the car. Many people think how to make a box for a subwoofer so that it takes up as little space as possible in the trunk. Here this bevel is 23 degrees and there is a solution to this question. Just the rear seats in the car are located at such an angle.

A closed box is best for this type of acoustics. But there are also more complex variants of manufacturing a subwoofer. For example, bandpass and bass reflex. The difficulty is that not every amateur can calculate and configure such equipment. You will need a specialist. Well, if there is an acquaintance, and if not, then you have to pay, and we want to make a subwoofer box with our own hands for reasons of economy. You can use an open-type subwoofer. In sedan cars, the trunk is an ideal enclosed space that can serve as a natural box.

Experience suggests that with the passage of time, the automotive language is improved. So, for example, the specialists carried out calculations, from which it follows that for a DS250 speaker a box of a closed type with a volume of about 30 liters is needed.

After carrying out calculations, we begin to think how to make a box for a subwoofer that fits perfectly into the design of the machine. First, draw a drawing, looking at which we will have an idea of what we will get as a result. For the front wall is suitable chipboard thickness of 23mm, and for the side walls it is better to take the chipboard - 20mm. For the back wall, you can also use the chipboard - 20mm. After the preforms are prepared, we begin to collect. It will take glue PVA. Lubricate the gluing surfaces and tighten them with screws. Step is better to do 5 cm. Next, after the box is assembled, put it face-to-face and fix it. With a circular, we select the desired hole, and then with electric jig saw we cut a circle corresponding to the diameter of the speaker. Do not forget to make holes under the wires.

In order for the subwoofer box to be made more qualitatively, some nuances need to be considered. For example, because of the high pressure created in the box, the acoustics begin to choke. To prevent this effect, you need to install the screen. This is a small box, lubricated with glue and screwed with screws to one of the side walls.

After the work done on the production of the subwoofer, we begin to ennoble it. The external state of the subwoofer also plays a role, albeit not the main, but still. For carpeting the carpet can be used. It will take a meter and a half. Nitro-lacquer can be used as an adhesive. Then in the carpet from the front side we cut out the hole for the speaker.

Next is the installation and fixing the speaker and then connecting it to the music center and the on-board network. Thus, we learned how to make a subwoofer box with our own hands at low cost.
