    Help my box is to small.....
    I built a new box for my kappa perfect 12. i was aiming for a size to be around .98 1.02 cf. Instead it looks like it will be about .92 - .96 cf. how much of a differnce will this make. should i try and make the box bigger? any ideas on what to do? is it even worth the trouble? they are kappa perfect 12.1d, most people boxes for these seem to be 1.0 cf. any thoughts?

    Generally, if you're within 5% of your volume goal, you're sitting pretty good. So you'll be perfectly A-OK.

    only one way to find out. i finish it yesterday, just need to wait for everything to dry and let the spekaers play for a while and then i should know how it works out.

    Another option is to add some Polyfill to the enlosure....you can gain a virtual 40% more box volume by doing this. There are tests that have been done by the pros on this...and they say that it also lowers the resonant freq of your box.

    HAHAHA dont worry about it bro. You putting a kappa perfect in a sealed box. There is a 20% error allowed with infinities conidering the poles are different. Call them and ask them yourself. That little bit of difference qont make a db or hz of difference. Thats why you make sealed boxesanyhow, there is room for error.
