Afficionado Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 I recently bought some sundown x's and am going to be doing a sealed trunk box. Everyone has been telling me something different, and i'm just trying to figure out what will be optimal for me. I will have 2x Sundown x-12's in a box, and i was told to go with 4.5-5 cubes net. My question is, what is the optimal port area per foot for the x series? People have been telling me they like really low Port area per foot #'s, but for most other subs, higher #'s are desired. Any help would be greatly appreciated, and if i made any of this confusing, let me know and i'll try to clarify.Other Info:I'll be running these subs on a Rockford T2500 @ 1 ohm, so about 3500 watts RMS.I'm also most likely going to be using an aero, psychoport.

CleanSierra Posted December 23, 2013 Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 They definitely need a larger than average port to operate properly. I'm not sure where you hard that they like small port area from. I won't argue the pretty area per foot thing I'm this thread. Jow many aeros and what size diameter port are you planning on?

I was told an 8" port, but then it seemed port area per foot was too low, so now looking at a 9" aero which will put me at 12.5" port area per foot.

CleanSierra Posted December 23, 2013 Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 What about 2 6" ports? Quote Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afficionado Posted December 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 What about 2 6" ports? i don't believe i'd have enough room for that :/ Is the 9" not going to provide enough area?

OrionStang Posted December 26, 2013 Report Share Posted December 26, 2013 Ditch the aero ports and do a slot port between the subs. Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afficionado Posted December 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2013 Ditch the aero ports and do a slot port between the subs. i've of course thought about it, but this is only my second box and i'm not very convinced of my box building skills. I also like how easy it is to adjust tuning with a psychoport. any reasons for ditching aeroports?
