Making a Dual Sealed Subwoofer - 12" Sony Xplod
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ส.ค. 2024
- DIY build dual 12" sealed enclosure for two Sony XS-NW1200 Xplod subwoofers. Box is designed to have an angled or wedged back panel in order to lean against the backseat of any car without compromising space and comfort. And that would leave no air space for resonance.
Each enclosure chamber has a volume of 1.076 cubic foot and a total of 2.154 cubic feet net volume.
Car subwoofer enclosures do look good when covered with charcoal black carpet and finished seamlessly. Amplifier used in testing is a generic Chinese-made D12 MRV-F805 4 channel 3800w amplifier, bridged each channel into 4 Ohms.
I used a bi-amp speaker terminal cup gold plated banana binding post to make the enclosure system more flexible in wiring options. Can be wired each speaker individually or can be wired parallel, or any other options possible with this terminal cup.

I have 4 of them in my house I know they are for cars but I love the bass that comes from them
Yes they are very good subwoofers yet affordable.
Don't worry, there is not not drivers for car or for home, a driver is a driver.
Yet again, awesome build. Sporting classic Xplod drivers and proper MDF. Respect !
I built my first sealed box last year and it turned out pretty good, nice sound and tight. I'm in the planning and design phase of a ported box I'm going to build this year, I have 2 identical subs so it'll be interesting to hear the difference.
From the WinISD simulations it suggests a 9+db increase around 44hz so should be noticeably louder and I'm aiming for a tuning frequency of around 28hz for the deep lows.
I can feel the bass❤️
Hi im DC and awesome creation. You must make a speaker box with two 12 inch speakers (not subwoofers)that will be awesome . thanks for making these video.s.
Thank you for the feedback DC.
Putting down the glue was satisfying.
Respect to your craft manship, choice of music and tattoos!!
As a bonus after piss myself laughing, the comment section is champion and comedy gold 😆😅😂
Oh, of course it would be rude not to, but subbed and liked, and done due to the creativity in this and content of the channel 👌
🤘🤓😍
Kudos Kudos Kudos bro... Excellent video on how to make a sealed, simple, and VERY accurate box. I make these all the time for family and friends. That way when I am a passenger in their vehicle they have good sound... Lmao... That and I'm retired and like doing it... They cover all cost for materials... and hardware...amp(s) speaker (s) ect.. And I keep all the left overs. Wiring wood Yada Yada... Anyway.... Again Kudos.
Thank you Hitman 70. :)

Awesome build Sir, well done!!! You built a really great looking and great sounding box.👏👏👏🔥🔥💯🔊🔊🔊🔊💪💪💪💪
Thank you Raymond for such heart-melting feedback. And i like those emojis for real. 😎😍😂
Thank you Very much for the Video.
Swear ive 2 ported subs, 1 bought from manufacturer and 1 DIY but recently made a sealed box for CT Sounds strato 10 inch and thing sounds clean AFF. Always heard this argument that sealed boxes sound more sharp where as ported ones go louder. Would take a sharper one any day for a HiFi system.
Thanks for sharing. 😎🤘
Wonderful work
Thank you Deepu.

Man salute to your talent.... i m big fan of yours
.and i want a sound system for my car like that also...
And dude plzz make a tower sound system.......
Thank you S.K. Next year i'll build tower speakers.
Sounds aight but you need a better quality amp and put a some weather stripping around the subwoofer holes to seal it better and for better sound and output. It sounds like theres some air escaping.
Hello Amante, how you doin. What you are hearing is the sidings of my vintage mini-van rattling like weasel on speed.
Mind blowing sound
Hello Sandeep! Cheers form the Philippines!
Although this is a sealed subwoofer enclosure, those subs aren't going to last as long as subs would in a ported one, as I'm sure you're already aware. But I have to say, this is by far the best DIY subwoofer enclosure video I've watched! The way you've designed and crafted it is amazing, and it looks really good too. Very good work, sir!
Could I ask what song it is you demo'd with at the end?
Hello NsanityHD, how you doin. Thanks for the positive feedback. The owner of this sub preferred a sealed box for his hatchback daily driver for a more accurate and clean bass.
The test track is the first one in this mix th-cam.com/video/3Tx-Vd-lVi0/w-d-xo.html.
I feel like the only one who makes boxes outta old shoe boxes 😂😂😂
MDF sheets are cheap, you can afford them. Why old shoe boxes, fren?
It looks as one of them has inverted polarity, they look out of phase :)
Hi thanks for the notice. I checked upon them and they have correct polarities.
@@chrclmnky they should cancel sound of each other, if polarity was incorrect.
i love the sound
Some people are really stupid and should not be watching this video if they can't understand that this is a sealed subwoofer box NOT a ported box or vented box which have ports and vents as the name suggests 😂 great video anyway, seem like they kick pretty hard 👌
That is right, but you know people sometimes can be a little funny or something. Thank you for the comment. 😄😅😂
@@chrclmnky you're absolutely right😂 thank you for the video!
I am lived in punjab this vedio is very nice
Thank you Mannspreet.
Clean looking box but those subs needs double the power to bang like they should.
Thanks to you sir. Nagka interest kog build. Kamolo ko build karon e link lang nku dani pag human hehe. God bless more powers
Make good and enjoy.
appreciate ur work ... ur videos r awesome as always buddy 😀😀 keep it up
Thank you Davinder.
fill the box with padding polyester
That's a nice sub box bro am thinking of making a box for 4 sub on a Chevrolet avalanche
Thanks for the feedback, Santa. 4 subwoofers? I think that would be an overkill. But I bet its very exciting to build. 😎
Nice

love your work dude quick question between sony and pioneer like 311d4 which do you prefer
@@MansaMarMusic 311d4 for dual sub setup
Holes one doesn't always need?
Do I matter the size of the box ha subwoofer. Tnx
Hello, this is a SEALED enclosure. So no hole or port.
Vox build was really good along with the covering I probably would have added more bracing inside the box and I hope it didn't make that rattling sound for real I'm hoping it was just your microphone being over driven because if I had a box that made that rattling noise it would get scrapped and rebuilt
My minivan's sidings rattled like f**k and that is what you are hearing. You see I tried to hold the sidings in hoping to eliminate the rattling.
@@chrclmnky try that spray foam insulation or get some of that rubber matting they use on truck floors for transporting big paper rolls. That matting stuck on lage flat panels with super77 adhesive works wonders.
Noted that. I need a load of sound deadening material to cover all rattling spaces. Need to save money for that though and after repainting job. Or I just buy new car if I get lazy.
Sealed enclosure nyc sound quality
Thank you Maa.
I dont understand why it is sealed, i believed it should have breather..can u explained why. Please sir
There are many types of subwoofer boxes, there's sealed, ported, bandpass... etc.. This one is a SEALED.
Because the quality of the bass is much better. But it's not as loud.
@@Randommmmm204 yes correct. Thanks for the feedback Vlad.
Which are the songs.. Especially second one?
Hello Anoop, the bass test music? The second subwoofer bass test music is from Sandeep Luthra and here's the link th-cam.com/video/Udsefqice5A/w-d-xo.html
Your Box is nice but use better Drivers
Those are subwoofers, not woofers.
What is wrong with Sony XS-NW1200? Would like to hear your thoughts.
CHRCLMNKY it’s a decend driver but there are better ones out there,these are good for a budget build but not as a daily driver car audio build
@@rogaschuler6971 Budget builds are daily drivers! Expensive ones are for showing off, car shows, and competitions, that is what you mean.
CHRCLMNKY the Sony have low power tolerance, they say 1800 Watts for the people that don’t understand audio. The magnets they have are far to small, the materials are bad and their excursion is limited. They’re not the worst, however nice drivers are not for “showing off” it’s for anyone willing to spend a few extra dollars for good sound and actual high bass output.
This is cald real bass love u bass..
Yes
Ayos kaau ang subs boss. Naa ba deperensya sa sound if circle o square ang speakers? Asa pud ka kapalit adtong screw and nut para sa kilid btaw sa box. Thanks and more power
Rare ra kaayo ang square subwoofers then mahal pa jud. Circle gehapon nindot para nako. T nuts and allen bolts ge palit sa local bolts and nuts store diri sa Butuan.
Hey there is no space for air to eject.. it may damage the sub woofer... what to say?
STFU!!!
It's not a ported box. There are different styles of boxes friend.
I got 2 of the exact same sub woofers. Had them for a few years and they still thump hard. They are both in enclosed boxes
Hello friend.. This is a closed one and again speakers and subs do not move air they just make it vibrate at particular frequencies hence no single day they will ever push themselves out... Don't mistake this with burnt coil.
Where is the air escape ?
It is a sealed box
Air escape😂 it means port

Wow very nice work man like
Thank you very much Jose.
Which is your favourite ported or sealed
Sealed. Best quality sound
Why not ported so it can do better lows
Yes ported will do justice.
Bass air hole ?
This is SEALED. Not ported.
Why without bass reflex?
Because SEALED.
@@chrclmnky yeah but *why* did you go with sealed...?
To save space and get accurate bass response. Ported subs only good for home theater for watching movies. Ordinary people choices of music don't go low below 40Hz unless you're one of those millenials listening to mumble rappers' music. 😂 🤣 😃
you do good work bro.. so jealous of the t nuts cant find any here it would help alot with removing my subwoofer i have in a test box i built with a interchangeable port.. btw.. love the dog
Thanks, Adam. :)
@@chrclmnky welcome bro much love from another diyer and basshead
@@chrclmnky forgot to ask what was the best subwoofer out all of them u bought? pioneer, jbl, sony?
@@adam_1dizon121 For me, they all the same. Price range, aesthetics, hard ware quality, documentation, and sound.
ok thanx bro was thinking of getting the jbl s2 12 inch to try out
Is there any chance to play with smartphone ?
Too small needs are port too, those can hit in bigger box no wedge style too
Ok
It's bugging me I can find the TS parameters for this woofer... But the song at 10:30 seems to be playing pretty well to 20hz. Sounds good considering I can't find a darn thing about this sub other than the sensitivity...
Would like to see something like a Dayton Ultimax 10 or 12 in a similar enclosure.
You'd want at least 1.5cu for the 12 and 1cu for the 10 to stay within xmax at rms power
Or a 6cu for the 18"... I have a 13cu ported one myself...
Hello Josh, search for the keyword "sony xs-ns1200 owner's manual pdf" for this particular subwoofer's TS parameters and all. There also indicated manufacturer's suggested box sizes for both sealed and vented.
CHRCLMNKY When I search for that Google literally pulls up nothing and sonys site also brings up nothing.
I'm not too worried alot it as I only wanted to see how it modeled, but confused if it's just me that can't find anything on it? Earlier today I found a tiny bit of info on it, now I can't even find that.
Thanks for taking some time to reply though.
@@JoshM7 www.sony-latin.com/en/electronics/support/car-marine-entertainment-in-car-speakers/xs-nw1200 click the Operations Manual something about 2.5mb pdf file
you forgot the air outlet and a little box
Because SEALED.
What is the price of music system
A gdje ti se nalazi rupa na kojoj ce izlaziti zrak 🤔
Why did you make different partition for the subs ?
Acts as bracing. Also if one sub fails the other can still be used
Hello i need some help...which one sounds better or they are the same.....the one like that in the video with a division in between or one with just a brace in between....
The one with a brace and opening in the middle.
Did you phase the 2nd one at 180?
Do they cancel each other at same phase?
Sorry for bad english
Hello Gagan, no I didn't phase the 2nd one. They are both at 0 degree. Why did you asked?
hey, ik your getting a lot of comments, but can you tell me what you did to make the slots on the sides of your box? You used these slots to push in the fabric.
Hello, thanks for the comment. The idea comes from Mark of Car Audio Fabrication. Watch it here th-cam.com/video/dYl1WOGtVV4/w-d-xo.html
I know people are already asking why it's sealed, but no-one seems to have gotten a proper answer. Why is it sealed? What is the benefit of that? I thought in all situations a ported one is better. Is there a specific reason why this box is sealed?
For a given driver alignment, less space taken up and faster response at the cost of lower efficiency and less impedance rise - more "accurate" bass but poor low frequency extension, more mechanical noise from the increased excursion and also more strain on the amplifier. Sealed enclosures are probably better in small cars without dedicated midbass door enclosures due to the faster response but then ultimately the true sub bass frequencies suffer...
th-cam.com/video/45JofX2t4iA/w-d-xo.html ported ftw lol
Sealed boxes require less space. They're good for small cars and save more space. The bass is also more accurate but forget about anything lower than 40HZ
@@jimjones3287 Your're feedback is on point. Sealed boxes produce accurate bass response since ordinary people's music don't go lower than 40Hz, unless you're one of them millenials who listen to mumble rappers' music. 😁 😂

Make a video on how to make subwoofer box for gaming PC setup
Check this out th-cam.com/video/0DJuFHghCoo/w-d-xo.html I use this subwoofer for my PC in 5.1 setup.
Hello. Good Day. We Have Same Amplifier and my only concern is since our Amplifier is Just 2000 Max Watts since in its packaging saying it 500w per Channel Max. Im glad it can run in 2 1800 Watts Sub. and how about if we add mids and kicks in the amplifier ? does it still can hold all the power of speakers can throw
Help this guy
Which software did you use for designing the box?
Hello BeatBass, kindly check the description for the Tinkercad link. And box designing is Box Port 2 for Windows for free.

I had 3 of the red ones and dam that boy knocked too bad i messed up the box tho. it was louder than my 2 massive audio subs and my 15...kinda wierd how that was my loudest setup and those were in a sealed box.

Hey man i got the same 2 subs in a ported box but im in a extended cab gmc 1500 would a sealed box be better?
Nice. A slimmer box would be better because this box was bottoming out the subs due to noobish box design.
Bro just asking...i dont have any experience in building subwoofer box....but i can make a house....is using plywood good? Then i add sound proof in the inside...then add the black sound proof fabric on the outside?..i plan to install 1 speaker ...this speaker....and a 1800w monoblock ?....is this good set up?
Hello thanks for the feedback. Yes plywood is good and lighter than MDF but I think they're a bit expensive. Good luck and enjoy box building.
Also 1800w mono amp is good enough. It can shake the whole block of neighborhood.

Dimensions of box ...??
Do you use this in your swift? I too have a new model swift and I was inspired by your build and installed JBL stage 1220B subwoofer (dual 12 inch) and Sony Gs100 class D amp. I have adjusted the gain and bass settings at a local car audio shop and the system absolutely rocks. Previously I have used single 12 inch jbl subwoofer with class A\B amp and I loved that setup, until I started craving for more bass. The dual 12's with mono block amplifier running at 2ohm just simply shakes the car.
good to hear your progress. yeah they rock the car up and down. if you need more bass, you can always upgrade your amps and subwoofers. maybe go beyond 3000w rms?
@@chrclmnky car audio is a never ending upgrade😅
@@chrclmnky I saw your video on suzuki swift about LED light upgrade and did the same with my swift and my swift looks super cool now. For the indicators though, I went for "144 led" bulb (Bau15s) for both front and back because I got them at a very good price and they are extremely bright compared to stock incandescent bulbs.
