zanekeimigdesigns Posted August 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 The more power you have, the bigger the port needs to be to keep port velocities reasonable. Bigger ports eat up box volume so its another trade off.More port area per cuft or more port area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triticum Agricolam Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 More port area per cuft or more port area? Both. This is the problem with port area per cube rules, they don't account for how much power you are running. You may have said in another thread, but what are the specs on your current box, size, tuning, and port area. Nevermind, I see you posted it in the other thread.

I get conflicting tune values from one box calculator to another so i dont know what the true tune is on the box, but im ball parking 28 and 55 hz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessica Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 so, i can say, I used to be with 3k on 4 12's with about 130" of port, which was like 15"/per compared that to what i have now which is 3k and one 10" and 12" of port which is like and its about 14.5" per. I get a lot of chuffing and noise near tuning and below. So you can see how just cause you have a certain port per doesnt mean anything. 3k into 130sqin or 3k into 13sq". not even the same thing lol.

An impedance graph would be the best way to know what your tuning is.
