I have designed this box with how much space I have in my cars' trunk area.

The 2 speaker holes are for 10" subs

The box is 2.179 cubic feet.

Subs Im planning on puting in the box are audiopulse revo 10's.

So now where do I put the port how big and what should it be tuned to?

I was thinking a slot port in the middle tuned to 30 hz

3.0 cubes? How much louder will that be than 2.2 cubes? I cant really go too much bigger. I could maybe change the 16 to 17 inches and the 11.5 to 12 inches, making it 2.4 cubes. I dont think .2 cubes really matter, I though it was more in the port design..

I made this thread asking about porting the box and tuning the port..

having a port will take away alot of the box volume. the only way you can compensate for that is by having a larger box. and 30hz is a very low tuning requiring a long port in most cases. what kind of music do you listen to.

edit: if you tune for around a general 35hz, you can save airspace, but not much.

it wont be worith it to port the box if your just gunna starve the woofers of air. if you want to go ported i would say just do 1 12 instead of 2 10's

im not saying you HAVE to do anything but generaly ported boxes require more air space than sealed and if you make the box to small you will hinder a subs performance. with this in mind its better off to go smaller if you cant fit bigger. just my oppinion. then again i cant seam to get the link to the website to work so i cant get info on your subs. does the site give box volume specs?

.8-1.5 cubes per sub...

I heard you go in the middle and then port it..

so either 1.1 cubes or 1.2 cubes per sub

Making for 2 10's 2.2-2.4 cubes.
