Now just what ZEnclosure do you have? I Measured the S-type. .76cf inside.

This may help someone.

I don't have one...yet. But they have the correct volume. The recommended volume for the W6 is 0.62cf...

I assume the more volume the better..?!

boogy886,
I do give you credit for trying! Not exactly sure what you have going on there though. What is the final internal volume of the enclosure you built and why are there a total of 4 vents?

As for the proper enclosure sizes for your 10W6v2:
Sealed - 0.625 fu ft.
Ported - 0.75 cu. ft.

AT least with your current sub-enclosure set up,,,you would not have to worry about anyone breaking in and stealing.. (joking) Nothing ventured nothing gained. At least you have some experience with ported enclosures and you had fun in the process. That is all that matters.....post up photos when you get your Zenclosure installed.

+1. Kudos for giving it a shot and thanks for the pics. That is one ugly **** of a box though.

I'm going to try my hand at it soon, but will be integrating a retangular wooden port. All I need to do is get the port specs. My enclosure will be nothing special either, just a retangular box that can sit in the hatch. I already have a perfectly built sealed enclosure. I just want to see how my sub sounds in a ported enclosure. If I'm impressed enough, I might be tempted to rip the old enclosure out and custom built something...

Sounds like a good plan to me, that'll be a fun little project.

Thanks guys! In regard to "what do I have going on there?" I have this response - It made sense in my head at the time...haha

I still can't believe I posted pics of that...quite embarrassing since that is not my quality of work
