What size box do I need for a 10-inch sub?
For a 10-inch woofer, the volume recommendation is 0.625 cubic feet, and the recommendation for an eight-inch speaker is 0.375 cubic feet. You can build a larger enclosure to allow for more volume of space inside to produce a flatter sound, which is better for music that is less bass-heavy.
What happens if you put a sub in a bigger box?
By making the enclosure a bit bigger it will become more efficient in many cases, increasing output. As the size of the enclosure increases, the mechanical limits of the woofer will be easier to reach. If the box is too small (by a reasonable amount) add power.
Do subs sound better in a box?
Sealed boxes – for deep, precise bass. A sealed box is an airtight enclosure housing your subwoofer. A sealed box is best for any music that demands tight, accurate bass. Since a sealed enclosure tends to require more power than a ported box, use an amplifier with ample wattage for optimum performance.
