Boon Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 of course, i want it to be heard from far away with windows down of course lol, keep the sound in with windows up 1 4" wide aeroport or a 4" wide slotport? A single 4" tube/aero port is FAR too small. You need more like 4 of them, or 1-2 6" aeros depending how much power you have and how you want it to sound. Quote 10.x volts fo' life!

Nightshade Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 for every 1 cube the box is after displacement you need a 4" aero port at a minimum I don't agree with that at all. I have a 7.2 cube box with 6 4" aeroports and my setup is well into the 152 range off of 3400 watts. That is exactly 10.46 sqin per cuft and your suggesting that you need at least 12.56sqin per cuft when using an aeroport. Aeroports are much more efficient than a slot port and require much less port area than an acutal slot.

Trying to combat his single 4" aero for 5cuft. In all honesty I use 1 6" aero per cube on big woofers and for aero's being more efficient than slot.. I know that...lol Quote 2008 California state record holder 157.2 Bassrace2009 California state record holder 157.0 BassraceRollin 50's 158.7db2009 King of Cali Bassrace2009 USACi score 160.5 @ 42hz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crump Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 re box calc doesnt take into account the displacements of the sub and double baffle, that could change the tuning by a significant amount.
