Go-N-Def Posted May 19, 2013 Report Share Posted May 19, 2013 What is a good example to avoid? Yo dog i heard you like boxes. so i put a box inside a box so you can bass while you FAIL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98GCLimited Posted May 19, 2013 Report Share Posted May 19, 2013 Your way overthinking this box build man. Just make it around 3.5 cubes net volume and 14sq in port or close to it do the port the height of your box and whatever width it needs to be to get your desired port area. I think a few threads ago you had what looked like a 5:1 ratio of port height to width which is not that bad and should do fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe X Posted May 19, 2013 Report Share Posted May 19, 2013 Height/Width > 9 or Width/Height > 9 would be bad ratios below 6:1 work nice, ratio 1:1 is best (a square port area). And I very much agree with the comment above, you are overthinking this a lot, I have stated this many times, MDF is cheap enough for anyone to afford doing a few boxes. It's not like you are dead if your first box doesn't fit your taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go-N-Def Posted May 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2013 Thanks guys. This here will be my third box, the last was a major failure. I'v been waiting to put this xl to work. I'm also trying to learn Torres for future builds.

It's not the same as saying that the port will be the most efficient since there are other variables to consider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe X Posted May 19, 2013 Report Share Posted May 19, 2013 ummm so youre saying a port that is 10 x 10 will have less restance than a port that is 20x5............. Less surface resistance only. If you have turns or flares or else in one port and not in the other, then that's different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About 500 in material every time. Lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
