BUILDING AN ENCLOSURE

4

Now that you know about subwoofer specifications it’s time to learn about 

building subwoofer boxes. If you’ve done any woodworking you shouldn’t have 

much trouble when building a subwoofer enclosure. One of the main 

differences will probably be the material used in building subwoofer boxes as 

compared to other woodworking projects.  When building a custom subwoofer 

box you will want to use minimal MDF (medium density fiberboard). 

TOOLS REQUIRED TO BUILD AN ENCLOSURE

Safety goggles

Table saw or circular saw

Powered screw gun

Router or jig saw

Variety of sizes of drill bits

Wood glue

Silicone

Wood screws

To ensure your safety while building an enclosure, please read all manuals for 

the power tools you will be using, as they will include valuable information on 

handling the tools and safety tips.
