Hey guys, need some help here. Buddy of mine just gave me 2 Kenwood KFC-W3013PS 12's. I need a ported box design/ cut list.. Will be going into a 2001 Mitsubishi Galant... Space is limited to 32 wide, 16 high, and 36 deep.The speaker specs are

Nominal Impedance 4 Ω

DC Resistance 3.4 Ω

Voice Coil Inductance (mH) 1.65

Piston Area (Sd) 0.051

Force Factor (Bl) 10.5

Volume Acoustic Compliance (Vas) 83.7 liters (2.956 cu. ft.)

Moving Mass (Mms) 183 g

Resonance Frequency (Fs) 25 Hz

Mechanical Q Factor (Qms) 8.250

Electrical Q Factor (Qes) 0.910

Total Q Factor (Qts) 0.820

Maximum Peak Power 1,200 W

Peak Excursion (Xmax) 15.1 mm

Displacement 2,155 cc (0.072 cu. ft.)

Mounting Depth 6 in (153mm)

Weight of Magnet 1,780 g

Voice Coil Diameter 65 mm

They also recommend 2cu ft each

Any help would be appreciated... Thnx

So here is a suggestion, power: to subs rated, amp subsonic filter to 28Hz, minimum port clearance 4", figure is just an assembly guide:

NOTE: If building outside you need to build a cardboard dummy box to test fit in it's way inside.

Thanx for the design.... I'm gonna run them off of a Precision Power DCX-500.1. Underpowered for now. More upgrades coming but slowly...

what? did not last long?

You are the man joe

Glad to help, it would be best if you did a HDS315 instead as the RMS power handling of this sub is less than the combined power handlingof the kenwoods. If you'd like that I'd need to change the above a little, let me know.

Yea.... They were used and free and I had no idea how they played them... Needless to say, I was playing some decaf and they started smoking.....

Probably in a few months when I convince the wife to upgrade. I really do appreciate you input!!!
