chad y Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 I have been thinking of different designs. Is there any issues with mounting a subwoofer in the inside port wall facing the port? I know the velocity from the port would be directed across the face of the sub, would this cause cancellation? Or would it depend on volume of the port? I would like to do a blow through in my truck with either 2) 18's or 3)15"s. I was thinking around 10ft^3 with 190-200sq in of port. Any input is appreciated.

matt402 Posted May 17, 2009 Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 it depends. but i think it might be a +. look at the hoopty its actually a 4th order bandpass, the space between the subs facing each other acts like a port. i thought of a wall design with 12 10s, 9 on the front baffle, 3 on the side wall of the port .

If anything, it acts as a 6th order. And it depends on the design man. Some ported clamshells use the port wall as a baffle and There are some other cases where it would work, but it all depends. Shoot a picture or draw it so we can see what you're thinking. Quote Need an install? Hit me up.[email protected]Got car audio questions?

BigPimpin91 Posted May 17, 2009 Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 i was told its just 2 ported boxes basically Basically yes. But that'd kinda be like saying Steve Mick's box is just a Sealed box. Quote BigPimpin91's Banging Music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
