ISO Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 You are going to be very disappointed if you get a prefab ported box as they are not design with Alpine type Rs soley in mind. All woofers are different so therefore on average, all ported boxes will be different for different woofers. Dude I haven't said a negative thing to you in your other threads and haven't bashed you either. Just like I can't use my ported box designed for a 10 inch L7 with a 10 inch Rockford HX2. Made a baffle and tried it and it just didn't work. Prefab ported box is the worst idea a person could have man. Sorry. Man you lack so much knowledge on how all this stuff works that you really need to concentrate on educating yourself. I mean you are not even to the point to where you should be asking questions yet. We have so much info in the subwoofer section for you to read just so you could atleast get you into the Noob catagory but at the moment you are not even able to call yourself a noob man. Don't be offended and nothing I said is negative. I'm just trying to get you on the rite track so when you really want to learn people will take you seriously when you ask questions. I deal with Kicker and if you would like some links to ported box design to read through I will link them for you. I know your not useing Kicker but there is alot of info about ported boxes that apply to the general use of a ported box. Let me know but for know I need to run out to the barn and cut some wood for one of my projects and will be back in a few minutes.

ISO Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 Okay..I was hoping no one would bring up the old posts lol..i have read through them and I have my own plan on what I am going to do..and the only reason I am going with the SMD members is some have had long term experience with these so I am hoping they have figured out what the best thing for me to do is..and my plan1 See what I get for Christmas 2 If I dont get a ported box I will make one in shop class 3 If I do get the money I plan on buying another type r and doing another box and if i really get the money adding either another amp or a bigger one..My parents arnt buying anything except for christmas stuff okay? Read the bold part again. How could the SMD members know more about Alpine Type Rs than Alpine man? Isobaric - Refers to the practice of coupling two drivers together to make them act as one.
