Sergeant_Skyrim Posted April 2, 2012 Report Posted April 2, 2012 Was sort of looking for dimensions as in HxWxD as well as port dimensions. That way we can see how much port area/cubic feet you have, as well as other factors that may help to increase your SQ or even get you louder. Quote Build in progress

Port area is around 170 iirc, port is 6-1/4 x 26-1/2 x 20 long. Definitely on the smaller side but I made the most of the space I had. It'll all be coming out when I take it into the bodyshop at the end of April so that's why I've been thinking about a new enclosure idea. Quote
412 CVX Posted April 2, 2012 Report Posted April 2, 2012 so you're essentially asking for a design? Quote Just say no to Ground Pounder Customs. My temp system build log More box buildssome 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.
SmallTruk Posted April 2, 2012 Author Report Posted April 2, 2012 so you're essentially asking for a design? I was asking for opinions on the subs sealed then I answered a question about my enclosure specs. What part of this hinted towards me asking for a design? Quote

It'll all be coming out when I take it into the bodyshop at the end of April so that's why I've been thinking about a new enclosure idea. Just plugged your info into Torres. If you've got 13 net cubes with that port area then they're only seeing ~12.74 square inches of port area per cubic foot of box. If your net box space is closer to 13.99 then you're only seeing 11.84 square inches of port area per cube. If you do decide to redesign then I'd say probably right around 16 square inches of port area per cubic foot to be honest. I know that when I made my 2nd box (the one I've got now) I went from 16.something square inches of port area at 31Hz to ~12 sq in per cube at 31Hz and the first one sounded better.

SmallTruk Posted April 2, 2012 Author Report Posted April 2, 2012 Thanks. If I redo it with another ported enclosure I was thinking of going for 15-17 per with a removable port. I guess next month I'll be birch shopping again one way or another lol Quote

SmallTruk Posted April 3, 2012 Author Report Posted April 3, 2012 Definitely. I always use 13ply from a smaller local chain store. $56 each but well worth it, I haven't built a MDF box in years Quote
