I have 2 10" DVQ Infinty Perfect, I have a Sealed box right now, great sound quality not enough spl =P. Looking for a ported box. I have my subs firing into my cabin (I would like to keep it that way) I would also like to have the port facing foward (The same way as the subs are pointing) I can't seem to find what infinity calls for exactly in a vented or ported enclosure as far as volume. Heres the Owners manual PDF for my subs

https://manuals.harman.com/INF/CAR/Owner%27s%20Manual/Perfect%20VQ%20OM%20FINAL%20(Revised%2012-2-02).pdf

Ultimately I'm looking for best SQ While still having SPL when i would ike. Here is the box I was looking at. Please let me know your input about it.

Open to try any vented/ported enclosure that has similar design to that one.

Thanks.

I already posted the link for the PDF. I See the specs and everything for the vented and sealed enclosures but I can not seem to find a box that will fit that discription

Sorry dude, I was holding my eyes open when I replierd to your post. The are 2 pdf files for that subs on their site and U thought that you had the other one listed.

Anyway, it looks as if the box that you have the link to should be just fine for those subs or, you could just go by the specs and build your own box.

I know how you feel. Does anyone else have any suggestions on any vented/ported enclosures that will have the port foward?

The other choice that I would recomend is to visit your local install shop and see if they have a good box for your subs or ask them what they would charge you to build a suitable box. I know the local shop that I deal with on a regular basis would charge around $200 to build a box for them. And BTW, thats a good price if they build as good of a box as my local shop does.

And I retract my previous statement about that enclosure from cardomain. It is too small, you will need a box the is roughly 1.25ft^3 in size per chamber.
