Please see the link for pictures System Pictures It looks like you did a nice job with the install and box build, but I see one potential issue. It looks like dimension A is less than dimension B: It just might be the angle of the photo, but it looks like maybe you should have attached the short port piece flush with the long one, instead of overlapping.

dgreenie29 Posted September 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 I noticed that as well but I believe that's what the directions on there website said to build it at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgreenie29 Posted September 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 Shit... You are probably right.. would that cause that much output loss? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgreenie29 Posted September 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 And my port looks to be over 3" wide and it's supposed to be around 2 9/16 wide I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having the port wider than intended will raise the tuning frequency. It will get you more output in the 40 Hz region but you will have less below there. The short panel being in the wrong spot is going to cause a choke point in the port, which will decrease output, how much I can't say. It's obviously not a good thing though. When you can report back with what the output voltage is of your amp that will give us a better idea what's going on.

Rupp250 Posted September 13, 2017 Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 Double checked that you are wired @ 1ohm and not 4? I know it is a simple thing but sometimes the simple things get me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadeTreeMechanic Posted September 13, 2017 Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 Make plans for a second sub. My OCD won't let me run a single sub. Has to be an even number. lol The majority of the output at tuning will come from the port and having it choked could be a difference of a few db. Get the port right and it can double your output.

dgreenie29 Posted September 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 I can't get a solid reading. It goes anywhere from 25.9 to 3.5. Did I use the right dmm setting? Vac 200? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triticum Agricolam Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 Yeah Volts AC 200 should work. Make sure you are playing a sine wave tone. The one you used with the DD-1 should work fine.
