Hey guys,

I was an installer for almost 3 years approx 6 years ago and have been asked to install a very close friends system... Its being installed in a very clean Mazda Rx7 (series 3) We are after a very smooth sound for a more mature listener...

My question is as we have chosen a sealed enclosure, I would like to know how big or small people are making there sealed enclosures?

The specs are .88 cubic feet (24.92L), right up to 2.0 cubic feet (56.64L)...

There is quite a fluctuation and I am looking for feedback on how big peoples working applications are for a sealed enclosure...

Thanks in advance!

i've generally done mine at 1 - 1.2cf..

the box in my fiance's yaris with an L7 is ~1cf i think..

1.3cuft is optimal for all round SQ, if you want more bottom heavy go with 2.1cuft

keep in mind that's not including sub displacement, including all displacements you want around 1.2cuft to 2cuft., the sub would have around 0.1cuft displacement.

We are after SQ so ill look at the 1.3cuft...

Thanks guys Ill see how I go with it
