Gotz1lung Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 My box build is over here, http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...showtopic=42499 but before i cut the port holes i wanted to get a opinion. My subs will face up/forward obviously, but do i put all 3 ports in the front of the box firing toward the seats, or 1 on each end facing the sides and one forward to the seat. Thanks for any input, im new to the ported box thing totally.

Everyone I've asked said sub up port up if possible. I had PWK design me a box and he put the sub firing forward and the ports firing up right next to the side of the cab if that helps any.

Gotz1lung Posted April 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 The way i had originally built the box, ports out the top werent on opion, so it got one in the front and on the ends. Its VERY Loud right at the headrests, but i really dont think it would meter well. I have sunday off and plan to cut more port holes and move the ports around and see what i can come up with. What would be a guesstimation on the meter with 3 Power Acoustik fubar 12w's on a Crunch 1500.1@1ohm. My S10 of about 8yrs ago was doing 152.3's consistantly, and this i swear is just as loud.
