Now that I got my sub...


Recommended Posts

and after it gets re-coned, I need to make a box! 15" Adire Brahma Mkii is what I'm working with.

So far this is what I have for a ported box:

17"Hx32"Wx17"D

with a slot port 3"Wx15.5"Hx29.5"TL

4.24 before displacement

3.4 after

I still have some more space to work with in my PT Cruiser, so I was wondering if it would be worth it to make the box a little bit bigger?

Going into my new setup in the 03 PT Cruiser:

15" Adire Audio Brahma Mkii

AQ 1200D

Alpine 9884

3.5 cubes tuned to 29hz with square port(thanks Ben Building!)

Hahaha I want to go bigger but I'm horrible at box making. I can use the calc but I dunno if making it taller or deeper affects the sound.

Tallnes and deepness have nothing to do with it(except your port,buth theres many ways around that) What your looking for is all around cubic feet exspansion, if you have limited space and don't want to guess at port area with a slot go with Aero's FTW! Very simple formula,precision ports can get expensive though!

Hmm. I mean I can expand my box but the only thing I don't know is how big the slot port should be.

Ok, so say I have a box 37" high, 17" tall, and 28" deep. How big should the port be?

Depends on your box cubic foot, A general rule of thumb is to have 12-16 Square inches of port per cubic foot of the box.

All BS aside, If I see one more comment in here that is NOT about the pre-sale, I will start the vacations. And that includes the trolls feeding the trolls.

YOU THE ONE THAT SOUND LIKE A OGER AND HUMPBACK/TROLLS?
