Needs a freakin Calc that's Mac compatible

[bumpinTL364]

Okay I'm fed up with calculators off the interwebs telling me i need a box thats 17x11x6 and a port that wouldn't fit into a box twice that size. What are some other GOOD calculators that'll work for mac??? Ive used this: http://www.carstereo.com/help/Articles.cfm?id=31, this: http://www.mh-audio.nl/ReflexBoxCalculator.asp, and multiple calcs from here: http://www.carstereo.com/help/articles.cfm?catid=1... HALP PLEASE! all i wana do is design a box for dual 8"s with slot ports porting through the center of the box (between the woofers) and using 3 common port walls (i think... if that makes sense...) it can't be all that hard...

If you're porting between the woofers then you'd only have 2 common port walls (top/bottom of box)

"For Mac users:

this is a windows based program, so it will not work on macs from a fresh download. you'll need to use either parallels, virtualbox, VMWare fusion, or wine"

This is also from the Torres Box Tuning Calculator thread up top. I think these are other programs you can use that are Mac-compatible

I've looked at everything in that thread, everything needs to be downloaded or bought which i can't do on my school computer without admin passwords and all that crap.... fugggggg this place

i have a mac too. pencil and paper worked for me! just sayin

if you want you can post max dimensions, what subs your using and what power you will be giving them and ill see if i can come up with something for you in torres. also what u want it to be tuned to

... i wrote a box tuning program on my Ti-84. Enter port area, port length, and net box volume, and it tells you tuning. Of course it's super simple, but I wind up doing most of my designing on paper and in SketchUp so all I need is that quick calculation. It's like 8 lines of code or something. Super super small.

Like newguy said, if you post max dimensions/subs/preferred tuning then I am sure somebody would help you out

thanks guys. If i knew the the formulas, I'd do it no paper. I'm using 2 Tang Band W8-740p 8" woofers, power probably going to be around 200-250 watts, max dimensions are (width x height x depth) 20" x 14" x 7" and I want to tune to 33-34hz. thanks guys! sub specs can be found here: http://www.tb-speaker.com/detail/1208_03/w8-740p.htm

Much Appreciation!
