JMac91 Posted May 6, 2011 Report Posted May 6, 2011 (edited) You think an aa mayhem 18" would be fine in a ported box thats .5 cf smaller than ideal. Supposed to be in 5-8cf. Just wonderin cuz i prefer the size.. gross volume is about 6.7 net volume almost 4.6.. seems like it be fine.. its a very tiny difference.

JMac91 Posted May 7, 2011 Author Report Posted May 7, 2011 ok sweet.. Figured she'd be fine.. since its only an inch of height off of being 5. She sounded pretty damn good too im not gonna lie.. Some good ass shit.. But whats the difference from a ported box thats say 5cf and one thats 8cf with the same sub in it? Bigger = Louder? Smaller = Lower? Im not sure.

dwright27 Posted May 7, 2011 Report Posted May 7, 2011 Smaller box just helps control the cone so the woofer doesnt unload if you will, and generally allows for better power handling. The 8 cube box will be more efficient ( so you could potentially be as loud with less power/ make better use of the power you have ) versus the 5 cube box.
