mrteacha Posted July 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 Id go ported and alot bigger if you got the space.. and do u mean 1000 watts a piece or 1000 for all 4?? For now Im going with 100o for all 4 or 1000 watts total for substage...I do have the space But i have never build a ported box. I wouldnt even know where to begin as far as calculating dimensions for a ported box. Wanna help/design one for me ? MY space to work with is 47" wide by 36" deep keeping it below the window line would be about 18" tall oh and i already bought a sheet of 3/4" MDF just sitting waiting to be cut I am not at all worried with the electrical part as I did the big 3 with 0 gauge and have a 200 amp alt about to go in, along with one yellow top as of now going with an additional battery soon..
