ibanezrg134 Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 I recently bought an Orion Hcca 12.2 and am trying to build a box for it and have a few questions. I am putting roughly 1500 watts towards it. This is Orion's recommended box size. 1. Orion recommends a square port. Is there any benefit to a square vs slot port? 2. Orion recommends a 38 hz tuning. Isn't that a little high for rap. I was thinking 33-35 would sound better. 3.My working dimensions are h= 20 w =40 and d = 15. Sub up port up. Any help would be appreciated!

Joe X Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 1) You can use a slot or a non slotted port as long as you do them right. 2) Yes 38Hz won't be the best for jeezy and the likes stuff, you are better of with lower tuning. 3) To do some layout would need to know vehicle and amp you have.

ibanezrg134 Posted February 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 And by doing the slot port right isn't there a ratio to reduce port noise? Lower like 35 or 32 is very common. 2007 ford freestyle. Hifonics brx2400.1d( budget build). Going to set gain to output around 1500 watts at one ohm.

I believe the ratio is 1/8, you want to be as close to a 1/1 ratio as possible.

ibanezrg134 Posted February 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 I have had no experience with aero ports but would they be the better option? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example a 4in wide x 20in tall port would be a 1/5 ratio. Vent match refers to the speed at which air comes out of your port. 2014 JKU Sound: pioneer xav-65 4 12in pioneer tsw3003d4 2 pioneer gm-d9601 (much more in route) General: 18in worx rims 33in tire stinger src bumpers light bars 6k hids 2in leveling kit 3.25in lift The Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/195839-2014-jku-build-4-12s/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triticum Agricolam Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 is there anyway to control the vent match? Yeah, larger port area = lower vent mach "Nothing prevents people from knowing the truth more than the belief they already know it.""Making bass is easy, making music is the hard part."Builds: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustang2dakota Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 is there anyway to control the vent match? Yeah, larger port area = lower vent mach Don't forget to mention that if you increase your port area that in most cases it will raise your tuning and that you'll have to make your port longer to account for the increase in port area. 2014 JKU Sound: pioneer xav-65 4 12in pioneer tsw3003d4 2 pioneer gm-d9601 (much more in route) General: 18in worx rims 33in tire stinger src bumpers light bars 6k hids 2in leveling kit 3.25in lift The Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/195839-2014-jku-build-4-12s/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
