Jman9112 Posted October 9, 2015 Report Posted October 9, 2015 I have recently acquired an atrend pre fab box, it sounds good, but with added power, I'm afraid the port area will be insufficient. Two sound stream r3 12s on 1000wrms. I thinks its the slammer series. Ballin' on a budget.
Triticum Agricolam Posted October 10, 2015 Report Posted October 10, 2015 Without knowing the specs of the box, its pretty hard to tell you anything. What I can tell you is, generally speaking, prefab enclosures tend to be tuned too high, have too little of port area, and are constructed as cheaply as possible. Maybe the box you are looking at isn't all of those things, but the odds are it is.

Jman9112 Posted October 10, 2015 Author Report Posted October 10, 2015 I've gotta give it credit though, it sounds best down low, like 27-32 hz and it does have 3/4 and 1 1/4 baffle. Very solid box, the ones like it online are going for $180-200 Ballin' on a budget.
RainStryke Posted October 10, 2015 Report Posted October 10, 2015 Atrend boxes are okay... I have one in my wife's car and it is tuned a little too high for my likings.
Jman9112 Posted October 10, 2015 Author Report Posted October 10, 2015 They must have different styles and different tunings. I don't have the measurements, I don't even really know what it is tuned at though, it gets low good but it sounds decent everywhere Ballin' on a budget.

RainStryke Posted October 11, 2015 Report Posted October 11, 2015 They must have different styles and different tunings. I don't have the measurements, I don't even really know what it is tuned at though, it gets low good but it sounds decent everywhere I have the single 12" vented box from them, it's tuned to 43Hz. Your box is tuned to 39Hz if this is the one you have: https://www.atrendusa.com/12-dual-vented-shared They do make tons of different models, they have a bunch of subwoofer specific ones as well.
Jman9112 Posted October 11, 2015 Author Report Posted October 11, 2015 Mine looks closest to the slammer series. It's separate chambers and the ports are split in the middle, and go to the back corners in an L. My guess would be 32hz Ballin' on a budget.
RainStryke Posted October 11, 2015 Report Posted October 11, 2015 Then it's probably this one: https://www.atrendusa.com/12-dual-vented-divided Which is 38Hz
Jman9112 Posted October 11, 2015 Author Report Posted October 11, 2015 Sorry but mine isn't that one still. Lemme see if I can find it. The ports are like that but I think they go way farther to the sides in the back Ballin' on a budget.
