    Sub enclosure help

    Hi all.

    I am wanting to build a pair of subs using the L26Roy. I want each enclosure to measure 24" high 12.5" deep 12" wide. Should give me close to 40l.

    Will this shape rather than a cube cause me problems? I would prefer a sealed cab or using the L26PR.

    Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    Sub frequencies don't care what the shape of the box is, but cube shapes are the worst.

      No problem at all having a cube shaped sub.

      When possible it's better to have a sub with some depth behind the woofer so it has room to 'breathe'

        I thought that having non parallel walls was the ideal for enclosures. Is that not correct?
