    does the airspace in my port count as part of my total box volume?

    or do i just subtract with mdf wood used too make the port?

    my port will be slotted and falred "rounded off"

    H =15 "

    w =10 "

    depth= 21"

    now for my depth of my port...do i measure 21" from the end of the rounded edge of the port "on the outside" or the rounded end inside the port?

    when you're overpowering a sub, you wanna go with a slightly smaller box. shoot for the bottom end of the recommeded range instead of the top end.

    wow i never knew that...but wouldnt my bandwidth suffer? I really want a big box, it will sound deeper, and move more air...and too correctly power it ill just turn the gain all the way down and probly give it 2-3k

    question 1

    Been building my enclsure i calculated my minimal area is 126 sq inchs. so im figuring 150 is it better too be near the minimal area? or is it worth going big?

    1 18 solo x kicker in a 15.54 cube box. but i havnt added port displacment yet or speaker displacment

    question 2

    Im going too round off my port edges on both sides...but when i do that...at what point do i Measure my port length? from the end of the rounded edge? middle of the rounded edge? or begining? please let me know thanks...

    MY GOAL: maximum enclosure volume for a kicker solo x 18 i was told that is 12 cubic feet...if i am wrong PLEASE correct me...i would like the box to be at its max even after port and speaker displacment

    if you can only awnser one question please do thanks.

    inch^3 means cubic inches, not square inches. There are 1728 cubic inches in one cubic foot. So your sub displaces approximately .288 cubic feet of air.

    THANK YOU....

    what do i do to come up with .288 what do i calc to get this?

    OK NOW

    what is the square inch surface of x2 tens

    and x18 square so 18x18 corner too corner

    Hes thinking about it differently obviously. Hes thinking the needles are gonna move regardless though they wont in a solid setup.

    oh ic ic i get it now if i have enuff batterys and alt power witch is near inpossible for the alt. but if so my voltage will never flucuate i never knew that so even if i did hook the caps up and had enuff power supplied EVERYTHING it would be a steady 14.4v?

    i pictured 14.1-14.4

    im noob guys lol sorry least i admitt it :give_rose:
