ok i really need some help here. i tried crunching numbers and using a few different box calculators. i originally designed box with REs L port calculator which it said i would end up with a 4.5 cube box tuned to 34 hz...well i measured evrything a second time and im ending up with 38 x 18 x 19 with .75 wood so 7.52 cubes gross with 4.25 x 16.5 port for 70.125 sq inch port which equals just over 9 sq inch port per cu foot and with a length of 25.5 inches i came up with a tunage of 27.84 hz. :( im so fucking bummed this was my first box and being that i am satisfied with the craftmanship but RE's calculator really fucked me can anybody double check the box specs? pretty much evrything is going wrong so far. its a learning experience alright but im soo disappointed so much money and time has gone to waste. i have neither of those to spare

If those are your outside dimensions then its not 7.52. Subtract 1,5inches from each number(36.5x16.5x17.5=6.099cu.ft.)

TDH FTW !!!

Bro, i'm coming up with 4.45ft^3 @ 35.06 hz with 15.76in^2 per ft^3?

Looks good to me! :pardon:

did you do that manually or an online calculator? this is what i just used to get the 27 hz: http://www.2k4civic.com/portcalculator.html

yes i stated it was gross volume. which then net gives me 4.949 (.98 port .17 subwoofa) but then where did cash dollar get his ^3 and tunage from. this is so confusing

ok so here is a little rant....i have it paralleled and i ordered dual 2ohm so it should be 1 ohm so now im thinking the shop fucked me and gave me dual 4. im pulling her out tomorrow to test it straight from the sub so i dont make myself look like an ass. if i can find the receipt saying i ordered dual 2 who would i contact the shop or DD or both? also when i sit at idle that number was 131 ohms what does that mean?
