Ernesto Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 For some reason I like the SQ aeroports give me... For SPL I prefer a slot port. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slinky Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 slot port is less expensive and in my experiences, it sounds just as good.

sean 371 Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 They say aero ports are better, but I dunno. I like my slot ports. ;D Quote A couple links to some box builds: Tahoe Box 1, Tahoe Box 2, Nissan Titan, VW GTI, Mini-Bump, Hummer H2, Ford F-150 My own car builds (current setup --- under construction): Overall Thread, Kickpods, Dash, Back Doors Subwoofer Wall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ernesto Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 I've personally tried both in pretty much the same setup. I was able to pick up more Lows @ 35hz using aeroports than I did with slot ports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Low n Loud Posted February 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 you guys know those frequecies that are so low u really cant hear them, but they shake the shit out of your car? by building this new ported box will i be able to pick those up alot better, or will those low frequencies always be that way no matter how i build the box? cuz my goal is not really to go on the meter, but to make the cars a few lanes over feel as if they have a 12" in their trunk. i basically want my head to expolde, and all who enter my car. as of now i have a subzone box tuned to 30hz, with a 1.5" diameter slot port that is about 28" long and 15" high. each woofer is in separate chambers that are 2cu ft. so when building this box how do i improve on this? shorter/longer port? larger diameter port? more air space per sub?
