Default Sub box dimensions

Hey Tireburner, finally got my system in the mail. Good reccomendations this thing looks like it'll rock. I've got the 10" sub what size box should I put this in? I'm probably going to have to build it due to the trunk dimensions.

If I remember correctly you got the Alpine Type R 10". If so, Alpine calles for a 0.5 - 0.8 cubic feet for a sealed box. This should present little to not problem fitting it in your trunk.

Hey you've got a good memory. Thats right it's a type R 10". Now you sya I need between .5 to .8 cu/ft of space in the box. Is that before or after i put the sub in? I mean do I build say a .5 cu/ft box and put the sub which will take up space thus lowering the amount of free space in left in the box. Or do I build a box bigger than .5 cu/ft say 1 cu/ft. Then install the sub and have .5cu/ft of space left after taking into consideration the size of the subwoofer? All I have to do is find out the volume of the subwoofer and that should be easy. Alpine probably has that listed somewhere.

Alpine has already done the work for you. Just build a 0.5-0.8 cubic foot box and you will be in specs. Alpine has already acounted for the volume the sub will take up. I would suggest building the box on the larger side, ie 0.75 or 0.8
