Neal82 Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 I have 2 15s Im going to be putting into my boat, but now I need a new motor for the boat... so untill im able to put it in there I want to build a box that will do well in an inclosed vehicle as well as a boat. Dimensions im using is 34" W 18.5"H 20"D That puts the box @ 5.82³ Max ported air space for these subs are 3³ each so 5.82³ minus sub displacement and port displacement should put it just over 5-5.4³ but im trying to decide on where to tune it... when figureing it out for the boat everyone said 45-50Hz but I am a FEEL the bass kinda guy id rather you loose your breath then to be heard from miles away. Subs are American Bass DX-15s Single 4ohm wired to 2ohm ran at their full tilt 500rms each. Im going to be putting the subs on the 34x18.5" face (of course) but putting the port on the side on the 18.5x20" side so i have roughly 30" of port i can squeeze into it.. lol so that'd put it at 33Hz so I can get 33+Hz outta the box... so what should I shoot for?!?!?!??!!??!?!
