Triticum Agricolam Posted April 28, 2015 Report Posted April 28, 2015 I thought when doing 4ths, you were always supposed to make the ported side bigger than the sealed side? Depends what you are trying to do. If you want peaky output, yes. If you want more even frequency response then the sealed side might need to be the bigger of the two. It all depends on the sub and what your goals are. There are no good cookie-cutter rules for band pass boxes.

audiolamb6 Posted April 28, 2015 Author Report Posted April 28, 2015 the only reason i dont go ported is the only way for sound to get in the cabin is through a ski hole in the seat or take out the rear deck speaker. but ill give a ported box a tryand see what happens

Broke_Audio_Addict Posted April 28, 2015 Report Posted April 28, 2015 But then the subs are still firing into the trunk. 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.
