Ive read you only need at leat 1" behind the magnet of your woofer for a sealed enclosure.
can any one confirm ths, my 10" has a mounting depth of 4.9" and want to build my box with an internal depth of 6", will it be OK ?

could someone fill me in on the adjustment of the x-over on my amp, it runs a 10" sub on low pass and the filter is adjustable between 40-400Hz.

standing still in the traffic, a lady in a Golf wagon lets the clutch out and BOOM into the back of me, thank goodness I have a tow bar, just need a new rubber cover (about the equivlent 2.50 quid)
was loading some stuff into my boot the other day and was thinking the sub was looking a little vulnerable, should I get a grill for it, does it affect the sound, probably not eh ? I know it wont look as "cool" unless I get one of those fancy pespex ones ??
who has one ?
[Edited by rock on...
