Does my subwoofer box need a divider?

 

Tacoma Double Cab single subwoofer box with amp rack

Everyone seems to have an opinion and as a subwoofer box manufacturer we provide boxes that come with or without dividers as ultimately it is the customers choice.

Subwoofer box divider

Things to consider when deciding whether to add a divider or not are:

1)  Sharing air space will not affect the subs performance. If you have two subwoofers requiring 1.0 cubic feet of air per sub and your box has 2.0 cubic feet the subs will share the space and perform fine, provided they are the same sub and receive the same signal.

2)  Putting a divider into your subwoofer box will provide a stronger and more rigid box and give it better internal bracing.

3)  If one of your subwoofers blows, having a divider will allow you to continue using the other subwoofer and decrease the chance the other subwoofer will blow.

If you have thoughts one way or another on dividers we would love to hear from you. Email us at support@supercrewsound.com and give us your feedback.

2017 F250 Crew Cab Subwoofer Box

 

2017 F250 Crew Cab Subwoofer Box

When we set out to build a new 2017 F250 Crew Cab Subwoofer Box the first thing that changed from our 2008-2016 F250 subwoofer box was how the seats attached to the floor. You will notice 2 small notches cut into the bottom of the box. These notches fit around the seat attachment brackets on the floor ensuring fitment. These notches cause  any cutout in the middle of the box to have to shift up therefore reducing the mounting depth to around 4.25″ compared to 5.25″ of mounting depth available on each end of the box.

The top of the subwoofer box has a notch cut in to fit around the power sliding window motor. The passenger’s side of the box is also lower then the driver’s side due to hardware on the passenger’s side.

Subwoofers size that can used

The 2017 F250 Crew Cab Subwoofer Box can hold a variety of subwoofer combinations. This includes 2-8’s, 2-10’s ,2-12’s or 1-13″. Customers can also have it built to hold one subwoofer and use the other side to have an amp rack. Due to the lower Passenger’s side of the box  2-13″ subwoofers will not fit.

The 2017 F250 Crew Cab Subwoofer Box will restrict ever so slightly the folding up of the rear seats when installed. If so desired the holes where the seat bolts attach into, can be widen by a 1/4″  allowing the bolts to slide forward and thus the seat will move forward just enough to allow the folding up of the rear seats.

All of our subwoofer boxes are built in the USA and built as the orders come in. No pulling a 6 month old box off the shelf, built overseas collecting dust and mildew. Fresh wood delivered weekly. We welcome any ideas you may have to improve our products. Thank you
