Trying to Tune My Box To 33hz ..... I'm Lost!

Recommended Posts

u can get away with less port area and it takes up less inside volume then a slot port

if I do external ones, can I use a bend so it comes out of the back bottom and becomes flush with the top? also where can I buy them?

You're still after this port thing?

yea, my box isnt that small, plus I had an idea, here is a post from my build log

"alright, I have a great idea, im thinking of building that port on my box like the plans show, but at the end have a door that opens and shut that can seal it off from ported to sealed, on top of that its going to be motorized, so I hit a button, boom it opens up and adds 3-4db's :P, and when I want to go back to SQ hit the button again :D sick idea huh, im seriously thinking this, I think I may build the port tomorrow, what you guys think? my step dad has been an engineer for 30 years, so im sure he could help design the device on it :P"

Yeah I saw that and shook my head. Good luck getting a good seal where the "door" goes down. If I were you, I'd ditch those Kickers and get some real subs that will blow your mind in the same box.

Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.

I already have a design idea, also I wish someone would just calculate out what I asked for instead of fighting me on the whole thing, Im just getting ideas here

Why can't you do the calculations yourself? Seems like you want to go ahead and do the ported thing. Go with it and see how it turns out. Or go ahead and try your idea of the motorized "door" thing. I think you're a bit too demanding asking people to calcuate stuff out for you and if their input isn't what you want to hear, you disregard the advice.

Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.
