there are quite a few different types of enclosures for subs, but a sealed enclosure is just that, 'sealed' completely air tight.dougfreeze wrote: Also with my experience building enclosures, don't seal the entire box air-tight. Allow a small hole like where the wires enter to allow for alltitude changes while your driving up and down mountains. If you think your shampoo bottle explodes after opening it on top of a mountain, think of how much less cone excursion you have with your speakers in a sealed enclosure.
if your worried about alltitude changeing the density of the air? (which i've never heard of with sound systems and do not beleive we will ever have that problem here in Oz) make a tuned length port for your enclosure.

there are some good bargins to be had on ebay if you are willing to take the risk.
I got an alpine 4x50w amp for $135, took 3 weeks for it to arrive EXPRESS post from S.A though...
But the best bargins i got was from a mate at one of the Large car audio shops. Top of the line Black Widow alarm for $85, RRP $399. Cost price is a great thing.

Any chance of posting a pic up of how / where you have mounted the 6x9's?Rb25sil80 wrote:I've got a pioneer 4x50w mp3 player, pioneer 6 inch 2 ways up front, pioneer 3 way 6x9s in the back, kicker 12 inch sub and a kicker 2 channel amp. Sounds decent, sub box occupys half of the boot space and is strapped to one seat, amp under drivers seat.

Ya, My capacitor has only 2 terminals, sorry I couldn't help more.
A capacitor is pretty much just a battery (A device that stores energy) so I would think that those 2 + terminals and 2 - terminals are connected to the same thing. Your 4 terminals just make things easier to connect power cables to.
Good luck,
Doug Freeze
