kryptonite Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 I just picked up an 18" BTL from my buddy and i want to build a box. I need it to be skull crushing bass that will slam all day long, not just a burp monster. My truck alots 8 cubes of air space, before port and sub displacement (of course bracing as well) I was thinking of doing a 6 inch Aero port because i hear they are more efficient. By my calculations (courtesy of a port length calculator online) i came up with the 6 inch port being ~5" tuned at 32 hz. Does that sound right to everyone? Anyone and everyone's input is welcome and needed.

kryptonite Posted July 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 yea it seems right but that is a big ass box Well i'm figuring that i'll put the port inside the box plus sub displacement and bracing the living hell out of the box should eatup atleast one cube of air, if not more.

Forevrbumpn Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 I'am just thinking at that airspace, that is a really small port I dunno, 2- 6" ports, with length needed to go down to 32hz? Quote I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah man, lemme know if you come up with somethin, i'm cookin it up in my head, probably draw it out tomorrow and see where it gets me. I'am just thinking at that airspace, that is a really small portI dunno, 2- 6" ports, with length needed to go down to 32hz? I looked it up and dual 6" aeros tuned to 32 hz would make each port ~14.25 long, which i could live with, anything to move air and beat the hell out of my truck Quote DC SOUND LAB NUT HUGGERCurrently Own 4 - 18" lvl 6s (m3) w/full Carbon Fiber option 2 - DC 5k lvl 4 motor lvl 2 motor On 8/2/2013 at 8:13 PM, n8ball2013 said: this is much worse.

A short port is better with transient response, quick beats, actually techno sounds great with a short port but then bass heavy music, like rap, with constant bass, a longer port would be better Quote I have a ritual called "terminator".
