carshateme Posted March 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 Can't believe Stereo Joe didn't hop into this thread to be quite honest! My pick would be the L-port box out of simplicity reasons. Less cuts with the saw, less clamping and using a a square for alignment. Let err rip dude, get to building. my reasoning exactly Lol by stereo Joe...did he mean JOE X? Yes, stereo joe is his nickname in my head when I read. He's such an expert and everything. Haha. Being trolled here xD Quote New build coming soon.

AmmoJammo Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 first one because it creates equal loading on the subs. Also, I'd use PVC pipe for the round over at the back of the port. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HatersGonnaHate Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 ^^^^^^ That was my reason for doing the 1st one as well. Equal loading.

Jaloosk Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 (edited) I was just going to say to go with the first one because of loading issues. Check the guy with the avalanche; he's got loading issues in his L-port box, and is planning on rebuilding. Another dude (on another forum) blew one of his 10" DC subs because of uneven loading, and he's got (had, I guess) a 150 trunk car. The PVC port in AmmoJammo's post above mine looks hella sweet too.

MrFree Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 (edited) NOooooooooo.LOl jk let me know how it sounds, because my L-port sounds sweet..pics in my sig I currently have an Back L-port on the box I have in my car right now. I can hear a little port noise, so I don't like it, could be because it was built poorly...but..I shall. PS: You should send me that clamp you got...too cheap to buy one =)) LOL I borrowed the clamp's from the guy across the street...IMHO the first box looks like you will lose some port, and it looks like that because you're coming off of 2 seperate chambers into a port in the middle.I think it would be better to have one solid big port for the box I went with the L-shaped port and Im doing really really really good with only 600watts and cheap Orion's. Edit:LOL the other night after I built my box, I ran into a guy from my old street. He told me that he could get me a box that would make my set up twice as loud. Then he went to tell me that I should melt a plastic cup in the gaps between each piece of wood to seal them, because I'm losing so much air. I told him that right about now Im moving so much air that you wouldnt be able to tell difference. He said "No dude Im telling you, you need to melt a cup, go around the edges and then put a piece of wood over the port hole.. Cause you're losing alot of air,you can get way louder". I started to cry, then went home to kill myself.

carshateme Posted March 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 first one because it creates equal loading on the subs. Also, I'd use PVC pipe for the round over at the back of the port. That is one sweet ass idea. Is that pvc pipe easy to bend...or is that two separate pipes? Quote New build coming soon.

AmmoJammo Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 Its two pieces glued together with PVC pipe glue, then I partially filled the back with araldite, left it overnight to dry, and then used a dremel to smooth/taper the ends..

HatersGonnaHate Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 Shouldn't be any regrets on it.... Rounded areas like that have less resistance to air movement, so that means less port noise/turbulence Quote My name is AdamThis is my Civic Build.7" Samsung Tab 2Kenwood KDC-X896Clarion EQS746Sundown X-15DC 3.5k @2ohmHatersGonnaHate's 02 Civic UBLELD Bypass for Honda Civic/Accord/FitDon's Jeep Grand Cherokee Rebuild N8ball2013 - i think you'd stick your dick in a blender if it told you it was 40 wtih two kids your age. lol srp365 - If posting were picking up bitches, I'd be going home single tonight looks like tony montana sneezed in your car.
