Triticum Agricolam Posted June 29, 2016 Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 Then how much area am I going to need to get rid of the port noise? Depending on port shape and configuration, I've measured port noise starting at about 18 m/sec, though it doesn't become really noticeable until you get closer to 30 m/sec. With a 6 cu ft box tuned to 24 Hz on 2400 watts I'd want no less than 80 sq in of port area. The trouble you are going to run into is to tune that 80 sq in to 24 Hz is going to take a pretty wicked long port.

natemikegray Posted June 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 So, what if its a 6cuft box tuned to 26hz with me pushing 1500Wrms? With a square port. 2001 Tahoe No system. Not even aftermarket headunit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On 1500 watts you could probably get away with 60 sq in, but no less.
