Treycann10 Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 I need someone with great knowledge of D.C. Subwoofers to design me a box for a single xl 12. It will be going in a 2012 f150 supercrew. Will be listening to mostly country and rap. I have a dd m1c powering it right now. Roughly 1700 rms (rated). I will eventually upgrade for a m2b which is 2400 rms rated. I tried to build myself a box and it doesn't sound good and has a lot of port noise. Current box is 22x18x14. Double baffle, 45s in corners, 6" full length aero. has to much "hissing" noise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triticum Agricolam Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 On your current amount of power a 6" aero is a bit undersized, which would explain why you were getting a bunch of port noise. You were probably tuned a bit on the high side, do you know what your tuning or port length was? What are the max dimensions you have to work with for a new box?

Treycann10 Posted August 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 max dimensions are 22x18x15. The aero is about 17" long. Which put tuningaround 41 I think. I want tuning around 34 but that gives me a 27ish inch long 6" aero and that's not happening. With such a small box it's hard to tune low because the aero ports need to be so dang long. Except for a 4" but that's probably way to small. I don't know.. just want it to sound good mainly playing rap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
