jizazz12 Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 (edited) looking for some advice,working on a new box for two lvl 4 15's.previous box was 7.5 cubes tunned to 33 Hz. using four 4" psp areo's.subs were being powered by two jl1000/1's in the trunk of a sonata. just got a new car a 2007 Chevy impala building a box right around the same size,thinking of using 6" areos instead of the 4". wondering if two 6" areo's will be enough or should i just stick with the 4"?also will be using same amps for now but will be upgrading soon any help on this will be greatly appreciated .

Marlo Stanfield Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 I'd personally go with a single 8" or 10" aero over any of the options listed above.

jizazz12 Posted February 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 where would i find a 8" or 10" areo? does psp make them, or is there another company that i could buy them from?

Marlo Stanfield Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 8" and larger ports are more custom made and easily made out of sonotubes, resin, and sum fiberglass.

Get the tube here http://www.sonotube.com/ Then flares here http://www.spiralfittings.net/images/cat11.jpg Quote i was thinking leave the 12 sitting in the box in the hole and duck tape from the bottom of the sub to the bottom of the baffle so the sub doesnt free air. would that work?

jizazz12 Posted February 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 (edited) o.k. i got ya, thanks for the info. I'll give it some thought i like the idea of a single port versus going with multiples.just haven't really ever done anything like that befor.
