I'm going to gut my box and turn it in to a 4th order wall for a xl18 m1. Im thinking 3 cuft. sealed and 15cuft ported @ 43 hz off a sundown 3500. The reason I'm doing this is for a wider musical bandwith and still play stupid low. What you guys think ? Any advice would be appreciated .

My 4th order I buil was 2.5 sealed and about 4.8 ported, I would definitely go with 2:1 ratio. I think it would best. So If u wanna go 3 sealed run 6 ported! Do it you will like it if you build it they will come!
