Question about Torres' Calculator


Recommended Posts

Trying my hand at designing a box for a Dayton Audio 18" woofer for my girls car. Its sub up, port up. But my question is, when doing a slot port at one end of the box, what do i put for the # of common port walls? If im thinking right, it would be 2 being that the port bends. Also it is 6.09 cuft @ 34 hz w/ 17.5 inches of port per cube. She wants it to go low, and so far that is the best port config. i have found. What do you guys think?

if you doing a "L-shape" ported box, it will be a 3 common port wall, since you have the top and bottom and one of the side as your "port wall". kind of like this.

Progene? I just saw that stuff on CNN. They said it makes your junk shrink all up. lol.

im pretty sure the op wont even notice if it gets even smaller.

...or something similar that doesnt include any of the side, top or bottom wall, then put "0" on common port walls
