Building a Slim Box for db10

Posts: 19
Hey Folks,
I have a db10 in a sealed enclosure that I built according to the supplied instructions back in 1999. Unfortunately, this box will not fit beneath the rear seat of my 2004 F150 Super Crew, and I now need to fabricate one that will.
I'd like to confirm that the recommended volume for a sealed enclosure is 0.66 cu.ft, and that I can maintain that volume if the box is approx. 6-7" in depth. Also, any general suggestions on best practices (top/bottom firing, spacing, stuffing, etc.) are highly welcomed!
Your,

Hello,
Welcome to Polk's forum. Yes, 0.66 cu. ft is the recommended enclosure volume. You should be fine with a 6" or 7" depth as long as the volume meets the requirements.
