OK. Mr. UPS man just dropped off my two Kicker 10" Solo Classics. Very good looking subs I might add sub enclosure - Last Post -- posted image.

. They have a recommended enclosure volume of .66 cubic feet each, including sub displacement. I am putting them each in their own enclosure. I came up with enclosure dimensions of 14.5" High x 5.25" Top Depth x 9" Bottom Depth x 17" Wide. It will be constructed of 3/4" MDF. My question is... will I need to add any internal bracing? My thought is that the box is compact enough that it wouldn't really require any.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

In an enclosure that small you probably need no additional bracing.

I too would not brace that enclosure.

Thanks again! I didn't think so either, just didn't want to wind up being sorry I didn't just in case I needed to.

Just like everyone else has stated, with an enclosure that small I would not brace. Bracing something that small will just suck up your required air volume to run the sub properly.
