Ok I am helping a friend build a box for a Fi BL fully loaded D2 ohm that is going to be run off of a SQ2200 in the back of a jeep Cherokee

Bcs he has kinda a space preference I came up with this box design (external measurements)

The plan is sub up, port back

Hight-18"

Width-29"

Length-20"

Now here is the math I got

I estimated that I'd have .5 cubes for bracing and adding the sub

Port would be a 6" piece of pvc 10" long flared on the inside

Giving me a net volume of 4.19 cubes after all displacement and a end tuning of 35.55 Hz

Is this enough port for 4.19 cubes?

Any other thoughts on this design?

Feel free to chime in

You have not specified what driver size you have but I'll assume its a 15 due to the box you shooting for. A 6" port will give you around 28sq in of port area which is way too small for that sub, I bet you'll have port noise. Would suggest you see if you have more space for a bigger box then use 2 6" ports for better air flow. Also I would recommend a double baffle on that sub on top of the bracing.

I was planning on a double baffle but that's about all of the space he can give up.. (I pushed him to get a 12 but he bought the 15) what can I do for port then? 2 4" areos?? What would u suggest?

Yes a 12 would have worked out better. Two 4" ports actually has less area than 1 6". Maybe you could get away with 3 4" ports giving you 37sq in but still low for that sub
