OG BudBone Posted May 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 Good luck with that... The enclosure will be fucking huge... Honestly you'd be surprised how good 1 12 will sound on low power bro... The boxes are efficient as fuck Yup I did a design last night for 35hz and it's almost 13.5 cubes lol fucking massive. Only thing that's really worrying me is the port will have maybe a half inch of space in front of it since the box is 49.5 inches wide. 1997 Trans Am WS6 Pioneer DEH-P5200HD 2 DC Level 4 M2 12s 4 cubes tuned to about 34hz DC 3.5k 1/0 Welding Supply Ultra Flex Stock 140A alt Stinger Fuses & Fuse Holders XS Power D5100 XS Power XP3000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OG BudBone Posted May 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 I could just make a bunch of vertical bends so the port is ontop. Damn i'm an idiot lol 1997 Trans Am WS6 Pioneer DEH-P5200HD 2 DC Level 4 M2 12s 4 cubes tuned to about 34hz DC 3.5k 1/0 Welding Supply Ultra Flex Stock 140A alt Stinger Fuses & Fuse Holders XS Power D5100 XS Power XP3000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a lot of ways to route the port, the constraint on that is your usable dimensions. I was able to design one for an 18 with a 16 hz Fs (200 inch long port) that has the overall dimensions 40.25" wide, 21.5" tall, and 65" deep in order to work for my blowthrough. Ideally, you want as few bends as possible to reduce fluid resistance; rounding the corners/bends helps the flow and keeps the port area constant.

The boxes are efficient as fuck i have a 12 inch t-line on 350 rms i believe (RF P200.2 @2ohm bridge) and it's pretty loud wish i had a decent camera/phone :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah my original design was just a simple u turn, but that would mean the port would be right up against a wall which probably wouldn't be very good...I wouldn't think anyway. It has maaaaybe a half inch of clearance lol 1997 Trans Am WS6 Pioneer DEH-P5200HD 2 DC Level 4 M2 12s 4 cubes tuned to about 34hz DC 3.5k 1/0 Welding Supply Ultra Flex Stock 140A alt Stinger Fuses & Fuse Holders XS Power D5100 XS Power XP3000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has maaaaybe a half inch of clearance lol That would've choked the port a bit. I believe a general rule of thumb is that you should have at least 4 inches of clearance in front of a port to prevent loading issues although it's always subjective.
