Symmetry9898 Posted February 24, 2010 Report Posted February 24, 2010 Hey guys, I been putting some thought into my enclosure as i am getting ready to start installing my system soon. I have an 18 inch BTL all options, i will be powering this sub with a Rockford T20001bd. My demensions as of right now are 22H x46W x 22D. Im thinking about tuning to arround 32-34 hz. My port dimensions are 20.5H x 8W x 26L. This should yield arround 8 ft^3 after port and sub (i think). It will be a slot port as well. Sub up, port back. Does this sound right to you guys? If yall have any suggestions, please feel free to speak up, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance...

Why would i have to switch the width and the height numbers?

Why would i have to switch the width and the height numbers? ***just to clarify...when doing a slot port to add in end correction, use the port height as the the distance from the box wall to the side of the port wall. switching the numbers will give you a different tuning, as port width will be longer in and it'll extend the tuning a lil further than it should -that's what torres put as a reminder i found that only applies if your port opening is positioned vertically...
