Recommended Posts

ok i have come up with a couple designs. and i built this one for now..

i would like to tune it in the 32-40 hz range... or if there is a better range for this speaker. please reccomend

subs 2 kicker L7 12 " its what i can afford and already have..

box is 4.93 sf w 30.5 d 22.5 h 15.5 outer dimensions .. made of

3/4 MDF

i cant use 6 inch ports.. none around here for me to get.. so i am limited to 4" aeros

i drew a quick pick to show where the ports need to face out..sry dimensions on the pick are inner measurements.

how many and how long of ports/ or what is best for these speakers..

just some extra info.. i have a single preefab box made by kicker for the l7 12.. that has 1 round port 5" id 11" long

Let me just clear something up really quick and I can get to designing you one...

You put " box is 4.93 sf w 30.5 d 22.5 h 15.5 outer dimensions made of 3/4" MDF"

Does this mean you already have the box made and you're going to modify it to make the ports fit?

And please post the pic you said you drew, I assume the ports are going to be external?

To be honest with you, I think instead of trying to modify the existing box, you could just start a new one... It would be a lot easier.

But either way, anything is "do-able"

Post up that pic!

sorry here is the dimensions of the outer box..

i had to build it in the car because its in a hatch with limited space.

i am going to modify this box for the ports.

the subs have to be facing up and the ports facing towards the cabin

hope this pic helps // ya i was having troubles trying to figure out how to post a pic on this forum =(

ok i was looking over this and i know i dont know how to tune a box.. but i was wondering if i add all 4 ports will my air space for the subs be way less now?? i know the sub needs a minimum of 1.75 - 3.25 max each .. so i need a minimum of 3.5 sqf or air space for 2 subs..

should i build the box bigger or stick with this? if i build the box bigger i have enough space for 1 more sqf

the new max size box i can fit would be height 15.5 width 36 depth 22.5 giving me a inner 5.87
