Recommended Posts

I looking to get bit more out of my subs

the setup I've had for a while was ok but since i really started playing around i saw so many new designs in boxes

this is close to what i had in

s-l500%201_zpsxq10wl4r.jpg

W 35.4 x H 15.75 x D 15.75

ports 8 x 3

it played everything quite good

so for my first try i build this box but with the port at the top facing up into the cab

W35.5 x H 15.7 x D 19.7

port was 2.7 x 12 x 12

it didn't play so good was quite a bit of distortion tried rotating in diff positions as well

I even tried lengthening the port down and in in L shape if im making sense but didn't do much good.

I then borrowed a box from a friend and so far it is the best one

W 33.5 x H 15.75 x D 17.7

port 3.5 x 17.7 x 11.81

but now my question is there anything i coulda done better with my build.

Your top and middle design looks like the port/ports were getting choked off at the rear of the enclosure.

That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

This one would seem the better of the 3, should be around 4.4 net @ 25Hz, you should tell what do you mean by "best" though.
