Subwoofer Stokes Posted November 18, 2015 Report Posted November 18, 2015 Wassup guys I'm doing a port swap in the next few days and trying to get opinions/suggestions. I have a box 39.5h x 41.5w x 13.5" d (outer dimensions) with a port 12h x 10w x 40" l which gives me 6.8 cubes tuned at 31hz with 17.75 port per cube. It's just not giving me as much pressure I want on lows. The new port is 12" o.d. Pvc (11.5" I.d.) x 36" l with 2-4" external. This will give me about 8 cubes tuned at 29 with 14.25 p.p.c. I don't have anything to lose, and I'm not building a new box until I design a 6th. So what are your thoughts on what I have now? <p>Black 1997 Chevy C1500 Ext.

Triticum Agricolam Posted November 18, 2015 Report Posted November 18, 2015 Well I suppose you have nothing to lose, and it might be an interesting experiment. I wouldn't expect much difference though. Probably what's holding your performance back the most is you are only using a 1,000 watt amp.

Subwoofer Stokes Posted November 18, 2015 Author Report Posted November 18, 2015 Yeah if that much. I'm just not having th e lows I want now I think because how my port is located. But true don't have much to lose. <p>Black 1997 Chevy C1500 Ext.

kirill007 Posted November 18, 2015 Report Posted November 18, 2015 A Fi Q motor on a 6 spoke 18 basket with nomex spiders and SPL audio recone. And a cheap boss r3400 for now. Yes I know... Boss The boss amp and SPL audio recone are probably the things holding you back.. Original recone is always better for a Fi subwoofer. Thinking is the root of all problems... You ALWAYS get what you pay for.
Subwoofer Stokes Posted November 18, 2015 Author Report Posted November 18, 2015 It also has a different basket so Fis recone won't fit. Spider landing is larger than my fi 12 spoke 18" basket. I don't think I'm having sub problems by far. It's loud in the box I have now on 28 and up but I want to get a lil lower. And yeah like I said it's boss I'm surprised its not in flames @ 1ohm Lol. <p>Black 1997 Chevy C1500 Ext.
