Angel187 Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 I have a set of xl 12's in a mini van. At a single point show the night before i built a 4 cu/ft box with a 10" port, 36" long tuned at 45hz. Power is not the problem but only hit a 144.7 and was rather disapointed at it. Without building a wall with a huge port to crawl in i just cant seem to wrap my head around this. Getting old a guess wife will not allow a wall anymore. The point is i was thinking 3cu/ft with aeros but never in my whole life ever played with them. Any ideas on what a good spl box would be? -Angel Quote -Angel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6berry Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 45 Hz is pretty high tuning but i dont know what sounds best or gets loudest in a minivan. look up exocontralto on youtube and he could give you some goo info on getting a minivan loud. he had one setup that was sub up port to the drivers side that got loud. but id say just talk to him for good info Quote 1999 Audi A4 1.8T::: 4 - DC Level 3 10's in a 4th order Rockford P6002 on Subs for now (3-3.5k coming eventually) MB Quart ONX4.60 for Mids and Highs Boston S50 Components in Front Boston S65 Coaxials in Rear 40 Sq Ft of Second Skin Damplifier Build Thread UBL 1948 Plymouth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not bad, Tonight i'm going to experament a little with either a 4th or a 6th order. If worse case i may just do a 1.5cu/ft box with 2-300 sq inches of areo port.

How do you plan to achieve that? Quote Bassless once again. Can't seem to keep a system for more than a few weeks Saving for a '06 Nissan 350z, look for build around June 2012.

Angel187 Posted July 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 That's a ton of port for 1.5cubes. How do you plan to achieve that? 200 sq inches = 1.3 sq feet, 10" port 39" long. Just a starting point and as i tune, just cut her down. Quote -Angel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
