ncochran Posted March 3, 2013 Report Posted March 3, 2013 So I ordered 3 e8v3 subs and a brz2100.1 to run them. I have tried Torres, and RE box calculators but they just don't have (or I don't have lol) the ability to set this up for me. If anyone has the software and doesn't mind helping, it would be hugely appreciated. The dimensions I am looking at are 17" H, 38"W, 11" top depth and 15" bottom depth. my goal is to run ports up/subs up. I am shooting for 32hz tuning, and it is going in a hatchback. RE box calc keeps trying to put the port on the side of the box that I don't want it, and Torres keeps giving me errors about the port being too complicated on the cut sheet portion. I have seen some really awesome designs come out of these forums, so hopefully someone has the time and is willing to help. I appreciate anythingyou guys can do . 2006 Scion xB 2 Sundown SA12D2 Ported at 32hz 147 on non termlab (140-142 on TL) Currently in a walled 4th @ 50hz (not metered yet) Hifonics brz2100 Alpine Type-S Components Kicker 300.2 Big 3 / Skyhigh 1/0 cca Optima Blue Top 3 e8s ported at 32hz 135.1 sealed on dash @ 56hz 135.0 outlaw (I must have chosen song poorly lol) Build log 'Brandon15zzz', on 09 May 2012 - 3:13 PM, said: May have been clipping but none fucks were givin.
Krakin Posted March 3, 2013 Report Posted March 3, 2013 I've never had torres give me the sheet cut for the port. It may have a couple of times but never noticed it. I just design it up myself. Give me a bit and I'll mess around with it.

Krakin Posted March 3, 2013 Report Posted March 3, 2013 First off you don't need all that space. I came out with this for torres. I left room for bracing later on. If you want me to make a quick sketch of it I can.

Krakin Posted March 3, 2013 Report Posted March 3, 2013 Do you have to have the port firing up? If you could make it fire from the side it would make the design much more easy to build. Or firing forward Krakin's Home Dipole Project http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/186153-krakins-dipole-project-new-reciever-in-rockford-science/#entry2772370 Krakin, are you some sort of mad scientist?

ncochran Posted March 3, 2013 Author Report Posted March 3, 2013 Firing from the sides doesn't seem like a good option since the box will be very close to the side of the car. Firing towards the back of the car could work, but may interfere with my amp rack plans. The sloped side will be towards the front of the car and the flat side towards the back. Would it possibly simplify things if we made D2 and D1 both 11"? That cuts the space down a little bit but seems like it might simplify things while still staying within sundown's posted specs. Thoughts? 2006 Scion xB 2 Sundown SA12D2 Ported at 32hz 147 on non termlab (140-142 on TL) Currently in a walled 4th @ 50hz (not metered yet) Hifonics brz2100 Alpine Type-S Components Kicker 300.2 Big 3 / Skyhigh 1/0 cca Optima Blue Top 3 e8s ported at 32hz 135.1 sealed on dash @ 56hz 135.0 outlaw (I must have chosen song poorly lol) Build log 'Brandon15zzz', on 09 May 2012 - 3:13 PM, said: May have been clipping but none fucks were givin.

Krakin Posted March 3, 2013 Report Posted March 3, 2013 Okay I had to made it aero ports. They are firing to the side but to fire from the back just make it turn back there. Box looking from the back with the back wall off. Once again to fire from the back just add a joint to make them face that way.

ncochran Posted March 3, 2013 Author Report Posted March 3, 2013 I appreciate your work tremendously! Is it possible though to make the depth (d1 and d2) 11 or even possibly 12 and still slot port up with subs up? Was really going to try and stay away from round ports if at all possible. If there are no other options then I can go with the round ports. I am getting sooo excited lol. I go to SC to play golf for 4 days on wednesday and when I get back they should be here and i can get started hehe. 2006 Scion xB 2 Sundown SA12D2 Ported at 32hz 147 on non termlab (140-142 on TL) Currently in a walled 4th @ 50hz (not metered yet) Hifonics brz2100 Alpine Type-S Components Kicker 300.2 Big 3 / Skyhigh 1/0 cca Optima Blue Top 3 e8s ported at 32hz 135.1 sealed on dash @ 56hz 135.0 outlaw (I must have chosen song poorly lol) Build log 'Brandon15zzz', on 09 May 2012 - 3:13 PM, said: May have been clipping but none fucks were givin.
