Alpine Type-R Enclosure

My friend just got some Alpine Type-R 6.5" coxials and we want to put them in a box. Is there anything we should follow or just make up some 0.5 cu ft box and stick them in?

this is for a 1993 jeep wrangler too by the way, and i want to make a box that sits over the transmission hub. they make boxes for them already but i would like to make my own.....2 Infinity Kappa Perfect 10.1D - Sony crap amp(cant find my specs lol)

anyone got any info that could help?

Just this:  these are full-range speaker systems that should be placed to the extreme left and right sides and as close to the front of the vehicle as possible for true stereo reproduction.  They are intended to be placed in the original speaker locations of a vehicle such as doors, not in a small box.  Try to mount them so they have more airspace than .5 ft^3.Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.

Does your friend even have doors? If not I would suggest learning to fiberglass and making some kick panels .

hes got jeep wrangler doors... aka inch think and only on when its cold out. theres not much room to play with in a wrangler so we just made a small box that goes behind the shifter... against the firewall. might build a new one if we have an idea of what it should be

i got the full size doors(not half doors of cloth) and a hardtop, i made the box and it working good but i think the enclosure is way to small... and im going to go look at the doors later today to see if the speakers could be placed there2 Infinity Kappa Perfect 10.1D - Sony crap amp(cant find my specs lol)

Do you know what kick panels are jettagli03? If not search for em in the forums. They'll more or less tell you how to build em. Kick panels would only be bad if your friend goes off roading a whooooole lot and gets mud and water in the car near the speakers.

and the answer is yes i do go off roading alot thats why i have a jeep2 Infinity Kappa Perfect 10.1D - Sony crap amp(cant find my specs lol)
