Need help with ported box

I'm building a new box for four Rockford Fosgate P2D2 12 inch sub woofers and Ive made a few box ideas, which one do you think is best? I like the first box better because of the tuning frequency, but look at the difference in port area per cubic foot. which one would hit harder and or be louder? ALSO the aero port is going to be made out of pvc pipe, any ideas or tips for mounting it into the box?

is the box height really only two inches?

That is one hell of an angle. What calls for that?

okay there needs to be at least 1 baffle that's at least .75" thick. and unless you're running the subs inverted, there needs to be a number in there for sub displacement.

i misread the box height. ignore my previous post

Just say no to Ground Pounder Customs.

More box builds

some cars do over 170db with one sub, so clearly my two 12"s can do that in my car, with my knowledge too! look out bitches!

I'm with captain stupid.
