Big_Mike Posted December 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2010 Something like that? Need a LOT more port area per cubic foot. You should be aiming at 12-16 sq in per cube. Also make sure you take into account how many "common walls" your port will have i.e. walls shared by the exterior of the enclosure & the port. If you are doing one at the bottom of the box facing back, one common port wall. Not a whole big problem, but it helps. If I were you, I'd go with something like a 12w x 8h port or something along those lines. Just make sure there's enough clearance between the port wall & the sub. I honestly have no clue what I am doing on here. Lol just putting in numbers.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_Mike Posted December 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2010 Lol I'm not planning on putting in a 7 cube box. I just realized that's what it was.. I was aiming more towards 4.5-5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrilla Posted December 31, 2010 Report Share Posted December 31, 2010 I honestly have no clue what I am doing on here. Lol just putting in numbers.... Lol. Your port area is the length times the with of your port (I.E. (16x1.75=28)) So with a 7 cubic foot box your going to want at least 84 inches of port area, and that would be 12 inches per cubic foot (minimum). So I wouldn't go any smaller then 16x5.5in, which is 88in of port area... Quote 2 HDC3 18's AQ2200D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big_Mike Posted December 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2010 Feel free to send me some designs or other ideas 4.5-5.0 Cubic box height can't be over 18.5". I have 40" of width to work with and at least 22" of depth. I was thinking about maybe the width being 32? I don't know.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
