SloFiddy Posted June 21, 2011 Report Posted June 21, 2011 So I ran some numbers, did some measurements, and this is what i've come up with for a box idea. Not familiar with aero port building, or tuning, so this is going to be an experience. So i've got the general idea, but my main question is, besides some support beams/structures should there be any baffles? or sides kind of half-partitioning the sub from the aero ports? Input with these sort of enclosures would be kind. Thanks! Quote 1999 4.6L F-150 Slower than S-L-O-W pioneer mids HFI100.4(mids) 18" DC lvl 4 Kicker zx1000

SloFiddy Posted June 21, 2011 Author Report Posted June 21, 2011 How would i achieve this without highering/lowering the tuning freq. too much? Also, will it effect the tune the further the aero ports are in the box? halfway, all the way in/out? Quote 1999 4.6L F-150 Slower than S-L-O-W pioneer mids HFI100.4(mids) 18" DC lvl 4 Kicker zx1000
SoCaLBaMF Posted June 21, 2011 Report Posted June 21, 2011 MOREEEEEEEEE PORT AREA. That thing would sound like a fan instead of bass.

uhoh_45 Posted June 21, 2011 Report Posted June 21, 2011 (edited) 2 6" ports 20" long with 4" sticking out would work for ya 20" total 4 " external Edited June 21, 2011 by uhoh_45 Quote R.I.P!

RAM_Designs Posted June 21, 2011 Report Posted June 21, 2011 Use a pair of 6" aeroports. Quote Ryan Miskin - owner of RAM Designs I have my PM's turned off, please email at <script data-cfhash='f9e31' type="text/javascript"> /* */</script> 2200+ designs since March 2011...
SloFiddy Posted June 21, 2011 Author Report Posted June 21, 2011 Did a little more research. Thanks for the advice. So general rule is to have in the mid-teens^2 inches of port area per cube? Quote 1999 4.6L F-150 Slower than S-L-O-W pioneer mids HFI100.4(mids) 18" DC lvl 4 Kicker zx1000
uhoh_45 Posted June 21, 2011 Report Posted June 21, 2011 with actual aero ports you can get away with alot less port area 8-12^2 of port with pvc port its a bit higher 10-14^2" port and with slot ports its roughly 13-16^2" port Quote R.I.P!

fecupe2001 Posted June 21, 2011 Report Posted June 21, 2011 I would try to go with at least 2 aeros 6" , something like 20" long each one, that would give you around 5.4 c/f and 33 hz tuning, biggest problem is that aeros come at maximun 17" long iirc, you could go with PVC tubes and flare them tho...

How would one go about doing this? From reading recent posts it looks as though i have plenty of time. DC hasn't got any motors? Or something of that nature.. Edit: Retarded. Didn't read post dates. haha. Edited June 21, 2011 by SloFiddy Quote 1999 4.6L F-150 Slower than S-L-O-W pioneer mids HFI100.4(mids) 18" DC lvl 4 Kicker zx1000
