CarAudioFabrication how much will you charger to make aye 18in sub box like a Qpower look
CarAudioFabrication what frequency is the box tuned to ?
I'm not sure but it's for aye Ford Taurus. What is your opinion?
CarAudioFabrication
I have 2000 watt premier 4ohm with 3 magnet stack, wondering if better in a port or seal box?this sub is about 110 lb also I'm not sure about the mesurement for th box
You guys are awesome, even though this is for car audio, I'm doing a home audio project, so these tips really put certain questions I had to rest
Awesome! Let me know how it turns out, thanks for posting.
I gotta say: every single video I watch impresses me more and more with your attention to detail and build quality. Head and shoulders above anything I've seen in person. Well done...seriously impressed!
High quality tutorial. Reminds me of the "How It's Made" show on TV. Well done!
Box..
Man I normally never leave comments on videos. Never like videos. Or do that extra stuff.. Just saw it as a waste of time.. But your videos have showed me that taking your time. Doing those extra steps. Really makes a difference. For instance the extra time you take to make these videos to truly help your fans. Actually helps us lol. The extra time you take to perfect little things during your builds makes the end item look amazing. And honestly I hope I can make items in my projects atleast somewhat comparable to yours. Thanks to these videos I honestly think I can. Please keep doing what you do.. It helps me sooo much and gives me confidence and ideas for my passion.. Time to make my dreams a reality, bought my first router table with router and an additional plunge router for over head cuts. And a table saw. So excited. Can't wait to build my very first custom box. Thank you for your amazing videos brodi. You ROCK. Keep rocking on
If you missed it yesterday you will want to check out the latest video: How to make a sub box! We review dados, 45's, bracing, and tons more!
How to Build a Subwoofer Box
Hey dude! I'd love to know what CAD program you use for your designing and planning.
Love your videos man, youre a talented installer and fabricator. Thanks for the door pod series too! It helped me out alot.
Cheers mark :)
Luke Johnson Google Sketchup, Google Sketchup Layout rendering with 3DS Max
+orfeous I use it to and yes it is nowhere near the power of AutoCAD et al. however it is actually user friendly! CAD and User Friendly have never been in the same dimension for mine...all thanks to Mark for the ripping design vids on how to use it as well...search his RUclips channel or website guys!
who's only got a drill and a jigsaw?
Most us probably just have a drill jigsaw and a cheap circular saw lmao but it’s alright we are all dreaming big on our boxes
Box box box , thank you for the very helpful video I'm about to attempt my first box build
Hell yeah! Do it up brother! Put those skills to good use! I hope this video helped you learn something you can use in it!

THELIFEOFPRICE JP I’m saving up for a box yea yea yea. Bones says hi to you.
Box...great stuff...i was an installer back in the mid 90s early 2000s...i used a lot of the same techniques you used but we had to make all our own templates...it's nice to see the art form continuing to grow
Finally someone who isn't afraid of a proper 45! Nice vid there, I hope there's a bigass woofer finding a home in that BOX. I'm jealous of your router table too
Thanks man! A lot of work and saving pennies went into that table, but it was well worth it. I am glad you enjoyed the video :)
@@CarAudioFabrication Can you tell us where you got the router table from?
Man I've been doing car audio for 14 years the only thing I haven't done is branch out into is building boxes. Thanks for the video, people like you and Steve Meade make me want to step out on the ledge of car audio!
Thats good to hear! Thanks for watching bro!
BOX! I just got myself a porter cable 1 3/4 hp router. Works really good! It doesn't have a variable speed option but it's my first router. Trust the name because we use it at work. All your videos are extremely helpful in getting the hang of using my router.
You made a very nice "BOX". I like how you explain why you make your choices, and what benefits they have on the project.
BinaryDNA Thank you, I appreciate you watching! Check out some of my other videos. :)
CarAudioFabrication Hey Buddy ... there is no T in "Second" ... WTF is "Secant" .. Pronunciation is not the Enemy...
Mark, you sir are brilliant. You have helped more than I can thank you for with the great videos. It’s cool that I’m always able to learning something. and I’ve decided to build an enclosure for my Tahoe I’ve spit 3 prefab boxes right at their seams. Not even exaggerating at all. They’ve worked decently but that’s not good enough.
My slot ported 34Hz did well but @ only 6cu^... the pressure broke the box at opposing ends. The sealed boxes were pretty impressive for only 4/5 cubes. However the bottoms both got split.

BIG 3 2-awg wire, just a grocery getter. It’s the first enclosure I’ll be attempting to built and have limited experience but I think a custom box is the only way. Thanks for being awesome! I appreciate y’all
Donu guys deliver the cutouts would be so much easier for us beginners...🤙
Wow, this is a seriously impressive and intricate box.
I was thinking of building a box for my sub but now I think I'll just buy one 😅
Each bass box incorporates dimensions specific to a driver's electrical and mechanical properties. In other words, you cannot put just any bass driver into any box. This box looks really awesome, although it is designed for a specific driver, and that driver must be identified and used otherwise it will not work.
The other issue is that vented and TL bass boxes tend to have a low f3, and any bass system located inside a vehicle will present a significant rise in frequency response below 50 Hz, producing a boomy sound. The sealed bass systems with and f3 of 50 Hz are preferred in vehicles for this reason. I welcome your thoughts.
I hate sealed boxes cause of the air pressure waves they cause, maybe im just sensitive.
@@chrisdolton870 every sub makes "air pressure waves" thats called SPL, aka, sound pressure level.
Can you properly define "boomy bass"? Tight, punchy, and boomy bass is vaguely defined and is usualy very subjective. If the box is built properly, you won't have the supposed "boomy bass" you proclaim.
@@sethh8892 I agree with Chris Dalton, I know that ported enclosures are much louder but with a sealed enclosure in a car you get a weird pressure feeling in your ears, even if it's at low volume.
@@ohyeahyeah1400 you'll get that from both, it's probably because Port enclosures can be tuned and therefore are generally tuned lower. (From 30-40) however most sealed enclosures stay around 40 and 50. High frequencies like 40 and 50 played can enclosure can create that. Also ears that aren't used to SPL will often do that "just because". Sealed closures are much more accurate but are extremely inefficient. I've never had that weird pressure that they supposedly cause, they've always sounded weak and boring to me. It all depends on tuning.
Box. I'm a DIYselfer. I was doing almost the same thing not even knowing it should be done like this. I like the tutorial for making the molded mesh and will probably make some because it's cool. Would be nice to have a router. These tutorials will allow me to make some nice stuff. BTW no loss for the guys like you making this because I wouldn't be able to buy it anyway, and to all the people whining - yes it costs, handwork costs, custom does, and it's not actually that easy as you think if you don't know how to use the tools.
Budget to buy material: OK. Budget to buy tools: crap, forget it...
There's got to be a beginners level or simpler way to design boxes?
pay your friend to build it
I am not sure Travis! That is why I would suggest having someone who knows what their doing build it. Although I believe it depends on how much movement the speakers do, some are tighter than others.
if wood working was that easy everybody would do it. This is why it's a good business to make money in
A simpler build would be withoit the bracing and 45 degree angles.
You can build much simpler boxes. Only mega audiophiles need* boxes with a million chambers in them. I've had boxes that didn't have any chambers and it sounded just fine.
BOX
I'm an OLD man that used to sell and install these units. I must say your work is awesome!
Makes me miss it.
For such a complicated box, how much better does it sound to a standard box?
No different to any other ported box of its parameters. SPL in small spaces is where these kinds of boxes really shine...which we all know. SPL is for tards.
Once again, excellent craftsmanship! I admire the heart and soul you put into every build and video.
Just a quick tip, not only for you, but for everyone; When you were centering up the hole for the woofer on the face, there's no need to measure. Lay a straight edge across opposing corners of the face to create two diagonal lines. The point where they cross is the center of the board. 100% accurate every time. That's assuming the piece is 100% square, a.k.a. "true".
Speaking of which, measuring across the opposing corners diagonally is also a way to ensure a piece is square. If the distances are not equal, the board isn't square (i.e., not all corners are at a perfect 90* angle).
Thanks, that is what I typically do, but I wanted to show the symmetry lines which make sense in the next video showing the templates use. Either way thanks for the support and watching! :)
Utter professionalism both in the build process and the narration.
You've truly thought of every grove, rabbit joint, and dado to make this box as efficient as you can. That Box looks factory made, Great Job!
Nice engineer drawings.
ShowtimeSPL Thanks for watching man! Glad you like the drawings ;)
Auto Cad is truly amazing!
I found your channel this afternoon on accident. It’s very interesting. I’ve been binge watching!😂🤣 Back in 1999-2003 I was big into car stereo setups and equipment. Then I totaled my car, could only afford a single cab Toyota truck and so I packed my equipment away. Well, in the last 15 years my ears have lost most of their taste for crazy bass. Which is a bummer because I’ve still got my old equipment and a full wood shop! I want to build one of your designs but I’d never use it!!😂🤣 Wonder if my missus wants a pounding stereo in her Equinox?... 😂 👍🏻👍🏻 The last box I made was in 2001 and it was the ported box that was suggested and drawn up in the owners manual for the 2001 model Kicker Soloberic L7 12”.
I had two powered by a 2001 model DX700 mono amp. I had an extra Optima Yellow Top and a 2 farad capacitor. Plus my components and a ZR240 to power them. Pretty badass for its time! I’ve still got the amps and subs but the components, crossovers, capacitor and battery and cables and fuse blocks have since “disappeared”. I should sell my 12”s and buy one badass 8” woofer and make a layered box of yours for under the back seat of my truck. Power it with the DX700.
Thing is I used to listen to “acid techno” and “industrial metal”. Now I listen to mostly Bluegrass and the stand up bass REALLY drowns out everything else when you’ve got a woofer of any kind. You probably have some way to tune it tho I’d imagine.
Man has stuff changed in the last 15 years!! Your channel is great!! I subbed and am looking forward to future builds and installs!!👍🏻👍🏻
box : I want to make one, but that seems incredibly difficult without those tools
You could probably do the whole thing with a saw and sandpaper, maybe a drill to make things go along quicker.
If you got power tools it just means being faster and doing less manual labor.
i built a similar box using one of their blueprints I'm waiting on more supplies before i can use it.. but its a very sturdy box and saved me like $300 by building my own box
Really? You did it? This shit looks deeficult! Congrats.
Rasputin 883 yes, but it was nowhere near the difficulty of this box!
Which one did you make? Did you make a port?
First off THANK you for your videos I have been greatly impressed with the ones I have seen. And after seeing this video with the old lady I will now be trying to build my first box in her 96 mustang gt not only a ported box but with lighting as well. (She likes to drop her back seats and get full boom) so once I am able to get it all planed out off I go with all the help from you so once more THANK you for the "BOX"
box.
I always enjoy watching cab building videos. You took a lot more care on making accurate cuts than I do. Love your router table.
I did my senior thesis on loudspeaker cabinet theory & design. One of my dissertation reviewers was Paul Klipsch. That was a pretty nerve racking hour, he's tough.
armstronglance Thats really cool, what did Mr Klipsch have to say?
I have been following your videos for about 2 months now and you have been very informative and educational I must say I think I'm ready to begin customizing my car I must say thank you... Oh yea
BOX BOX BOX BOX
That is crazy I was just designing a BOX a few days ago where all the side pieces and port walls lock together with dado's just like you showed in the vid! Great job Mark!
Thats awesome dude! Great minds think alike!
I really like the design of this box. It is cutting edge well built BOX. I am going to try and remake this box on my own and see just how it performs. The sheer cuts and layout alone should prove to be excellent. I am very interested in how this will turn out. Thank you for the very informational video. It was very explicit on all cuts and adjustments for router and saw. Greatly appreciated!!
just wanted to say lately you have been getting a lot of good notoriety in all the car audio forums... KUDOS to you!!
Hey CarAudioFabrication,
i'm Vincent and i'm 14 years old.
Soon i am going to make my first subwoofer BOX and your tips and advises helped me a lot preparing for my first BOX build!
keep up the good work and please wish me luck!
kind regards, Vincent Koster
Vincent Koster Glad this helps you out! Good luck!
BOX BOX BOX!!!!!!!!!!!!! AWESOMEST ENCLOSURE I VE EVER SEEN !!! NOW LETS DO A BIT SIMPLER ONE FOR A DUAL 12'S PORTED ENCLOSURE! U DA MAN!!
Wow!!! this is unreal!! I saw a few videos before finding you guys and what you guys are teaching in these videos is AWESOME!! Thank you so much for not fearing to share your amazing knowledge!!! Many "shops" with sloppy techniques wont go ANYWHERE close to the details given here!! Thank you so much!!
Thank you for watching!
And here I am thinking the SA-8 box you made a while ago was out of this world - then you come up with this, it just keeps getting better! Well done Mark!
Thank you! Trying to learn something new and try new stuff everyday.
nice job!! box looks really great. I always use liquid nails instead of wood glue because ive found that wood glue gets really brittle when dry. either way, great video and great box.
I love all the projects you do and how you leave a cliff hanger at the end. Makes me coming back to see the end. Love the "box".
You will love the next step! Thanks for watching!
It will take me 2 months to build like you did. You are professional and it takes lot of practice and equipment. So its better left to professional and just buy straight.
Box
That was a great build. You really show the finer details that are needed to level up.
You really appreciate the "art" behind the build, more-so than just functional, but using an artistic approach & lots of attention to detail. CAD software is an awesome tool! Many allow you to check volume before cutting your first piece of wood. You've got a great set of tools which helps with accuracy & allows the build to be more fun. Awesome work!
thats a gnarly box, my last box i made was a risky design for me and it has some issues so i gotta build a new one. will be using these techniques.
Good to know! Post an update video!
That's one hot box man. You guys are geniuses.
Wow, its so nice to see there are still craftsman passing on trade secrets and knowledge. Fantastic video......
I am glad that you enjoyed it! You would probably love my other videos as well!
wow, probably one of the cleanest builders I have ever seen.
It has been many years since i was in the car audio crowd but i have that itch again and i enjoy your vids very much good job.
Aaron Hughey Thanks for posting! Get back into it man!
I've known how to make boxes from my past and I figured I would watch to see how others might think of how to make a good box and I will say, Not Bad!! That box looks nice!
'BOX'. Amazing craftsmanship on this video guys, nice work.
Do people actually pay for this type of workmanship? I worked in this industry years ago but found lots of people wanted stuff like this but wanted it more or less for free or for near nothing. Gotta say you pay a great deal of attention to detail and craftmanship, nice to see.
That is one intricate box!!! way above my pay grade. It would be great if you did a video on ported enclosures. I have searched youtube for countless hours with no avail
What in particular would you be looking for in a video about ported enclosures?
CarAudioFabrication actual port design because i have yet to find a clean cut explanation especially with all the types of ports
I'd like to see a video on wiring subs. A tutorial from you on this topic would make it easily understood and be a lot of help.
Nice work, CAF! The grooves for the extending brace-walls, really impressed me. Have not seen that before!
You really have a nice tool setup now! You should consider a pneumatic nail-gun, if you don't have one already. I used to use a cheap one, with the thinnest nails. It's useful for tacking pieces together when building stuff with glue, and attach wood templates when routing.
I have never used those red safety handle things, but when routing large pieces, I think it would be safer and more solid to just grab the wood directly. The handles are probably great for smaller pieces, where you have to grab close to the bit, though! Just my thoughts :)
Thanks man! I do have a pnumatic nail gun, I just try to limit using tools that I know many might not own. I do use the router though because I feel lt is a must own tool. On larger pieces it is nice to just use your hands, but the idea is if the router suddenly grabs the material, it just pulls it out from under the push block, no harm done. In all honesty I feel much more confident using the router with them than without.
Thank you for bringing up the tongue again. I think it is one of the most used tools for car audio and "box" fabrication.
Cool "box" lots of detail and craftsmanship went into it and the outcome was amazing! Thanks for posting these videos!
You are welcome, thank you for watching them
Wow Mark, I just requested a box design from you for a Fi Audio SSD 12. I can't wait to get the design man and get started. Your videos are awesome. One thing that is really cool is that you are willing to teach others. Some don't want to give up these techniques. Keep them coming man.
Hey Derrick! I just sent you back your design! I think you are really going to like it! When you build it make a video and let me know!
Mark
Man you're a great installer and fabricator! Wish there were more guys around with your skill set!
Just built my box for my 2 memphis mojo m3 15's love the channel and keep them comming ur awesome!
I just love the way you get things done, systematically and meticulously, leaving no room for error, keep up the great work!!!!
I'VE SEEN THE VIDEO AND IT HELPED ME TO BIULD MY OWN SUBWOOFER BOX VERY MUCH. THANKS A LOT!!!
This will be my first speaker BOX build. I have learned a lot, thank you.
Awesome box! I needed some ideas to build a STRONG box for my two Sundown 15" Zv4's and this was great! THANKS!
Keep it loud man!
BOX great video mark and thanks for the design. Great customer service her folks 👍👍👍
ike suderman Thanks Ike, enjoy your new custom enclosure design!
hava kanalı yolu çok iyi düşünülmüş çok derin bir bas vereceğine eminim.. ah keşke böyle ehil marangozlar olsa.. sesten anlayan
BOX.
.... Wish I had all those tools so I could build my own box for a 15 square kicker L5 sub I've got. Awesome video
Im going to go ahead and say it... YOUR BAD ASS!! You and your ultimate diy videos!! Good stuff man!
Haha thanks man! Appreciate the views
Soooo cool. Like a legit art. Wow such a huge process. A lot more to it than I thought. I wanna learn this so bad.
Dang, thats a pretty nice BOX. Some day i'll have go out and get some tools and start learning how to make my own boxes and make them the right way. I've tried a couple times and wasn't exactly the best haha. Great video.
Thanks man, I appreciate it! Thank you for posting!
I'm 16 and I love building speaker boxes but I a jigsaw only so it's hard slow and its not that good of an cut but it works and I love your channel
Hey, just wanted to say thanks for the time and effort you put in to make your videos. 👍
Just amazing videos. Thank you for inspiring me. I will be making my box which will be the mother of all challenges.
Nice BOX!! I wish I had all those various tools to build my own enclosures the right way
Box. I just built my first sub box for a 12 a few weeks ago, and man do i feel stupid. my box is pretty much a rectangular prism with supports. now dont get me wrong, it hits hard and is perfect for its sub ( if i could get it to stay sealed lol) but its not the best i coulda done. thnx for the tutorials, and i dont really have to say it but, keep up that amazing work. You just earned yourself another subscriber.
BOX. Great tutorial Mark. Pretty in depth look at mechanics of box building. What CAD program do you use in your designing? I've started using Sketchup and the AJ box building programs, along with old faithful (the pencil). I enjoy all of your videos. Keep 'em coming.
Another amazing "Box" build Mark. Love your work.
Thanks for watching!
Awesome tip with the Straight Edge Clamping Tool Guide. Thanks
Maaan that box design looks siiiick... Nice "BOX" bruh...
BOX. Mark very great looking design and concept for this box build. As usual you out do yourself every time.
Thanks for watching!
Holy hell, you look like every dude I went to tech school with! Great vid, man, really awesome attention to detail!
This pays off monitor the work. Congratulations!
Thank you for the ideas! I will be using the roundover bit for the first time on my next box :D
A lot of love put into these enclosures.
Jordan Mason You know I love on my boxes. :)
Top notch design. The CAD drawings look real professional. I think i may try to build mine in sketchup, but i have a pickup that has limited space under the extended cab seats so i cant go with a standard square box like a trunk, but i like how you used 1 speaker that box'es expertly designed airflow will likely generate a more hi-quality sound than a simple box with twice as many speakers.
drwombat Thanks for watching, you can do the design! Just take your time and measure twice cut once!
Excellent instruction on router use and capabilities - nice BOX
awesome BOX man!!! way to take it to the next level with rounding over all the edges and 45'ing all the corners. it looks awesome!!! cant wait to see it play :D
Back in MY day a nice square, ported box was all that was needed to get any ATM machine screen to scrable! How much better is it to go all out like this for the actual sound? Nice video bro!
Bud you did a fantastic job making this video on how to build a sub box. New sub. keep up the good work. You have access to some very good tools which is crucial to building something like this.
Thanks for sharing this video, I've tried building boxes but they come out so so, it helps when you have all those nice handy tools though, again thanks for sharing and I'll put a project and try to build a better box.
"Box" watched the whole video.
What a video , very beautiful box .one of the nicest ive seen and go figure it was made by marc .keep those videos coming , love watching them
Thanks for watching Scott! Keep posting comments and smashing that like button!
Okay... I just gotta say it... That cutting table on your guys Website is fucking BRILLIANCE!!!
Cody T well, I mean on you contact info page
Now this is what I'm talking about!!! Alright... I was skeptical at first... Great video. I retract my previous comment.
Box- I love watching your very instructional videos.
very good way to build a box now il try to build one for myself
BOX LOOKING GOOD SO FAR
very awesome box build! im always wanting to learn and always wanting more training
Really nice design and build, I'm trying to get the loudest possible bass out of a single Kaption SPL 12 without sacrificing my whole trunk space. I've tried a slot ported box and a round port box so far and actually found the round port louder, the slot port have me loud as well as punchy bass which I like but I've yet to try a sealed, 4th order (due to trunk space) or a transmission line (space in trunk again) even though I've heard 4th & transmission line boxes can product some awesome bass! Sealed I've used on other subs in the past which weren't as loud but clear and used less power, however power isn't a problem so I just need to find what works with my space I have available!
I'm lucky though my buddy owns his own car audio/video etc shop and I'm able to try out some boxes around the shop, however once I find the one that works for me I'll build my own.
Great video it has some great info and pic's of the inside etc, I got a few good Idea's from your video such as the design at the end on the outside very cool!
im 22 years old now and watching this video makes me look back at my highschool years i really really wished i would have took woodshop more serious.
Thank you for watching!
This was awesome, I wondered about putting angles into a sub box for aiding in the airflow looks like i was right. .5 Box, as in I watched the whole thing but don't have money to make an enclosure, thus i haven't really followed the instructions. Also subbed.
Mark did really well in shop.
