CJ18 Posted November 4, 2015 Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 Do you have the space on the side of your box for an 8" Aero? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... 2.7k 13.1k 19
CJ18 Posted November 4, 2015 Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 With XLs you can go as small at 1.25ft3 per sub if you need to, that is one great thing about DC woofer, they dont mind being in a small box. With your amp situation and already having a Dual 2 ohm sub, best option would be to go with a pair of amps and wire strapped at 2 ohm. If you have any specific questions about any of this, please feel free to ask, I would be more than happy to help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... 2.7k 13.1k 19

An 8" wont fit with the flare my options are one 6, three 4s or a slot port. None of which are ideal. What is your suggestion? Also, port fired to the side or forward? this box will be my backseat in my f250. I assume the subs will be okay inverted? Any potential problems there?

CJ18 Posted November 4, 2015 Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 You would have to get a little creative with the design, but I would look at doing a slot port firing forward with a dual chamber box. One sub per side and port in the middle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... 2.7k 13.1k 19
CJ18 Posted November 4, 2015 Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 This would be the basic idea. The dotted line represents the part that goes over the hump in the back. The part the is colored in would have be to boxed in and solid to act as the back wall of the port. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... 2.7k 13.1k 19
bman8891 Posted November 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 I'll play with the numbers on that but remember the subs won't fit inside the box they have to be inverted and if I did that I would be able to sit people on the back seat they would have to put their feet on the magnetat least if both subs are off to one side two of the seats are available Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... 24 441
Triticum Agricolam Posted November 4, 2015 Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 I agree with CJ18 and I think some type of slot ported box is going to be your best bet. You have a lot more design flexibility with slot ports so you should probably be able to fit enough port area in there vs what you can do with an aero port. Also, due to the way common wall slot ports work, a slot port will be shorter than an equivalent aero port of the same tuning.

CJ18 Posted November 4, 2015 Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 You can still take the idea i post and move the port over to the side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... 2.7k 13.1k 19
bman8891 Posted November 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 slot port won't work I've tried every configuration in Torres I'm going to go with (3) 4 inch aeros and see how it works I'll post the results Monday thanks for all the help guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... 24 441
bman8891 Posted November 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2015 Well here's my mock up. I didn't realize I would have to cut a 6.25 hole for 4" aeroports so 3 of them wont fit. I just ordered a 6" kit. I won't have enough port area but its literally my only option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... 24 441
