GueroZ28 Posted December 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 Use the 6", it's more port area. I can't help you with all the questions you have. Maybe someone else can, but there are too many for me to keep up on. Thats fine u really helped alot.. i pretty much know how to make it already .. thing is the more people added, the more questions i had.. but i think everything else everyone said will benefit with more expperience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triticum Agricolam Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 One thing I caught on to when I was building my ports is some sites with tuning calculators are different. Not too much but if you want exact I would do some research and see what numbers are more common. See how much room you have to put the port in. And know what tunning you want. If you don't have enough room to put that port in the front between the subs it could always go on the side towards the bottom. Multiple ports could also be an option. Size of the tubing depends. If you want 1 port it might be big like 6". Or 2 3'' ports that would be shorter... Check out my garage, I have a small cavalier with a 6.5 cu gross box for 2 12's. I Have a lot of ports (for a unique port design). But only 2-4'' ports about 15'' long for the subs. I have em set at 49hz but I also set it up to where I can invert my subs to get a lower tune @ 28hz. Learn it and design it, You cant go wrong. I'll leave most of the past some as you are trying to help a fellow member which I applaud and support You did mention he could use a single 6" or 2 3" ports instead to work better with port length selection. I just wanted you and Guero to know that those are not at ALL the same amount of port area. 2 3" ports is a little longer 14" of port and a single 6" is a little over 28" of port. That's twice the amount of port. Simply doubling the diameter doesn't should the amount of surface area. I just wanted that made clear. Proceed So i can use the 2 3" ports but ttheyd have to be longer? How long? And is it possible to face back? Or is it better and simpler to use the 6inch pvc ?? Just to clear things up, if you went to 3" ports you will have to use 4 of them to have the same amount of port area as one 6" port and they would end up being close to the same length as the 6" port would be.
