Hours worked the last two weeks
Like 180 hours. Almost 90 a week, lol
KRONOS? do you work for coca cola?

train me! be my sensai!

wow, your getting close to content of fail thread of all time here
Thanks appreciate it.
-
physical port length is the length of the port walls. use that number instead. and make your baffle so it takes up the full length and width of the face. like so.
also, you're going to want some crossbracing front to back.
Ok. Looks good. I fucking hate sketchup I'm a much more pshyical learner so when I start I'll get all that in there. Also Would a double baffle be a good idea and instead of bracing top to bottom would some threaded rods front to back also work.
-
you have to measure down the middle of the port for port length. you dont measure the lengths of the port boards.
im not quite sure by what you mean. i took the length of 20 then took .75 (the size of mdf) and got the 19.25 but just rounded it to 19 out of sheer laziness
-
after this agonizing board of confusion I HAVE PROGRESS!
all to spec but the port walls since there wasnt any dims for those i just did 19 back 19 across just to get an idea, the 19 length turns out to 37hz 4.6 net but its just an inch! any input.
-
Yep.i would finally hope so after being given 100 different designs, for free, that would work.

Building won't be the issue for me. But thanksgood luck building
-
can you see that? If so, DO IT.
thank you! i know ima pain in the ass but i WILL get this down and it shall be glourious.

OP you gotta listen to these guys. They know whats up. It is better to give those subs more air then less. They need it! I would even consider giving them 5.2 net if you really want an efficient box. 72-80 inch sq of port with 14.5-16.5 in sq per cube. tune around 37 hz +- 2 hz and youll be happy. listen to us with experience and be happy. learn and go on.
if you can't work torres then maybe you should study up a little more on box building because that program makes it too easy. I don't want to even think if you tried using bass box pro or any other professional program. Study up and learn then try it out. Torrres really isnt the hardest program.
im tryin to do everything they say then it always comes out different so i tweek and it comes out worse, and its not the program its the numbers that im gettin out of it. ha im tryin to follow along here but when i put everything in and get 61hz im gonna start playin with numbers and for 412 cvx i know he posted all the ports area and shit but links are broke so its sorta hard to work with it when i cant even see em
-
I just GAVE you all the external and port dimensions. STOP and use it.
pretty hard to use them when the pics arent there anymore...
-
ok so i went on the DD site and did all the calculations my self and this is what i got, 4.6 cubes or air space 3.8 net which idk what happened there and 60 port area, i used every single dimension given to me and still came out under by margins so im guessing its the drivers and my trunk or my shitty math but its still not coming out perfect like everyone keeps implying that it should.
-
can you spare more room?
these are the exact measurements of my trunk.
-
he just needs to listen rather then just jump in and do whatever he feels like doing after repeatidly being told how to do it.
maybe i should, but venturing around and trying to figure it out with the information im given is what im trying to do than just taking everything on a platter and going with it.
-
you didnt put in 3 for # of common walls. and i didnt put a number in for woofer displacement, like i said.
it shouldnt make a huge difference?
that 3 tell the calc how many sides of the box the port touchces, so yes it makes a difference.
ok well im done for now. i need some time away from a calculator and this damn program. thanks for the help it is appreciated this shit is just frustrating

box 15 high 40 wide 22 deep
port 13.5 high 5.5 wide 24 deep
4.81cuft 15.44sqin per cube 35hz
not taking into account bracing/baffle/woofers
put those exact numbers in and got something totally different.
-
im pretty much there but its the damn tuning thats horse shit.
the size to port area is right off the DD site.
-
then dont get all pissy with the torres program that has a great help file and extensive answers in the topic where you download it from thats fucking FREE.
so you cant fit like 6cuft in your trunk? should've picked different woofers then.
im sure as shit the forum asshole gave you something good to work off of.
taking those outside box dimensions you used earlier, with .75" wood, i put a 13.5" tall port, thats 5.25" wide, and 21" deep. got 5.00cuft 35.34hz with 14sqin per cube. not ideal since i didnt take into account woofer displacement or bracing or an extra baffle maybe, but a fifth grader can use this program.
ok thats cool if a fifth grader could? im not saying its the program im saying the multiple people either saying 36-40 hz tuned or more port area or this or that and this. I also can fit alot more than 6 cubes in there but its the face that a box tuned to 51hz and 80in^2 port area isnt what im looking for.
and im not pissy so dont make assumptions. pissy and frustrationare 2 different things.

this is bull shit. no calculator is accuarte iv tried 3 of them the RE torres and one more and each one different and used the same numbers on each one. im done with this fucking box.
lol u mad? just use torres. it takes me like 45 seconds to 2 minutes to make a box to general recommended specs.
ok thats cool? am i you? nope. and its pretty hard for me to do that when the recommended box specs exceed some of the trunk measurements. so thanks for your concern.

Ok went back and changed some stuff and gonna go with an L Port I can't get a pic cuz im on my phone but here's the numbers 40w x 15h x 22d 8in port width 7in port length 4.6 ft^3 34.4 hz and 81in port area. How are these compared to the others
-
i pretty much gave you a box to work from , how did you mess that up?
i have no idea. i even went back to the dims and still wasnt adding up right in torres
