sub box volume

newguy · 10-21-2006, 02:56 PM

i have 2-10'' boss audio 700w subs model RIP-108 and i want to make a ported box for them. what would the manufacturers recommended volume be?

scott_fx · 10-21-2006, 03:16 PM

the recommended volume should be in the owners manual.

Unless someone has the exact sub's you do they would have to search for the information. Which you can do yourself just as easily

bwahahahahaha

does anyone else find it funny that the model number for a Boss product is RIP?

that's great!

and yes, to get the manufacturers recommended volume, you need to check the manufacturers documentation...

what is sad is that they probably intended for it to be RIP. though most people will see it as meaning that the subwoofer is bad ***....where the truth is that the sub may just be bad

sorry OP no offence.

yea i dont have the manual and i cant find it. any ideas?

scott_fx · 10-23-2006, 08:22 PM

well, i searched too and i'm at a loss. it's like the sub never existed at boss audio. you should just email them and ask them... they'd probably know better then we would.

yea i think i will do that, thanx for the time i really appreciate it. so many guys on here with their smart assed answers

Although they probably do not have the exact dimensions that you are looking for, a great site for reference when building sub boxes/speaker boxes is at: http://www.partsexpress.com/ they have all sorts of Faqs and advice and even free software that you might potentially use to make sub box calculations. Hope this might be of some help. Snoogins.

thanx man

lol 'RIP' that is great. After owning a terrible HU from them its REALLY funny...

but anyway... call BOSS they should be able to give you the info or at least make something up on thier end to give you (no joke thats what the guy from pyramid audio did for my subs but anyway)

I suggest looking up "the car stereo cookbook" by mark rumreich. It has everything you want to know about sub boxes and how to calculate your own volume if the manufacturer doesnt give it to you
