displacement on a twelve is about .12 - .2

Don't get caught up on teh specs in the owners manual. Yes, 1.94 is what they recommend, but it's not the bible. You can go over in box size and based on what it sounds like you want to do, without going over sized box when compared to factory specs you wont get the port area and frequency tuning your after.

Rolex you sicken me.

Krakin, are you some sort of mad scientist?

I would have replied earlier, but I was measuring the output of my amp with a yardstick . . .

What you hear is not the air pressure variation in itself

but what has drawn your attention

in the two streams of superimposed air pressure variations at your eardrums

An acoustic event has dimensions of Time, Tone, Loudness and Space

Everyone learns to render the 3-dimensional localization of sound based on the individual shape of their ears,

thus no formula can achieve a definite effect for every listener.

Isn't everything ?

Ok so hitting around 34hz. Port Area Range 38 - 51 in² . Port Area 43.75 in² .

If i change the length of the port to 27. I get 33hz. Port Area Range 37 - 50 in² . Port Area 43.75 in². With 0.14 woofer displacement.

Does this all look correct now ?

Otherwise try 14Hx30Wx18D 3" port 12.5" high and 24" long

you loose about 6 square inches of port area but keep the tuning frequency and drop some internal air space since your concerned about that.

BTW, KRAKIN. I tweaked that box a little and will be cutting up the MDF tomorrow, it's in my garage.

BOUT TIME!

I'm still sad the lack of port area you can fit in your build. Literately tried about 5-6 different designs, ranging from horizontal, dual, vertical designs. IIRC you needed around 70-75 but ended with 55-60.

Ya, I sacrificed port area for ease of box building. My laziness got in the way, but I think this box will work. Either way I got a term lab so i'll know exactly how much I'm putting out.
