tigerh4rf Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 Hey guys is 5x6 enuff port area a DC level 3 ten in a 1.50 cube box? This is not for daily listeing for max spl number on 3k of power tuning is high 65 hz. The port area it is using now is 7x5.5 with it being 14 in. tall tuned to 65 hz but sub gets hot quick thinking this is from too much port area. What u guys think? this is just to get maxx number on T/L. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirill007 Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 (edited) its tuned too high. and 5x6 seems quite a lot 5x5 is better. Maybe tune a few hertz lower? Do you get lots of excursion? And 3k is quite a lot. Edited June 23, 2011 by kirill007 Quote Thinking is the root of all problems... You ALWAYS get what you pay for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SS tC Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 So you have each 10 in 1.5ft3? If so, that's way to big. You might wanna start at around .8 with 16in2 of port and work from there. I tested 2 lvl 3/4 10s on a D5 at .25 with little heat issues. I ran into mech max but not thermal. What vehicle are they in? You can see what size port I ran on 4 this weekend in Houston Quote 05 tC 6 lvl 3/4 10s RD D5 2 XSPower D1000s(16v)Thanks Scottie 2010 USACi WF SS 0-600 3rd 157.2 1 DD1508 at 2 ohms 147.5 USACi outlaw, not port Thanks for all your help Rusty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
