Recommended Posts

Posted

cool. to say the least. let me ask another question if you dont mind. Is there any advantage to building an enclosure in this form (acoustically/efficiency) as opposed to the traditional ported enclosure, or is it all for appearance.

Build in progress:

Kenwood DNX890HD

Rockford Fosgate White wolf RCA's

2 Rockford Fosgate T400.4 on RF fanatic q components (6.5 in the kick, 6.5 in the front doors, 5.25 in rear doors)
2 Rockford Fosgate T2500's on sub

1 Fi car audio Team 15 D1

XS Power D3400 and three D975's in the rear

Mechman Elite 370

Stinger power connections and cable

Thanks guys :)

As for the tuning with a kerfed port, it's the same but you just start the port's length where the kerf stops and the width becomes constant, so it's not much of a difference.
