PandaS10 · 07-08-2008, 02:09 AM

i run polk currently, and i am looking to fit an alpine type r 15 in my reg cab. its going to be a stretch...to say the least...

AVNCHRIS · 07-08-2008, 04:40 PM

triple r · 07-08-2008, 05:04 PM

id say that the 2 r's wouldnt be any louder than your 3 cvr's. maybe not as loud. but as for tuning, go around 32 like dimedrop said and you will be fine

AVNCHRIS · 07-08-2008, 08:09 PM

i need a link for a port makin site

ya i use that.. but what number that i figure how big i make the port?

PandaS10 · 07-09-2008, 12:59 AM

well, you just type in box volume, your desired frequency, and what diameter port you're willing to use. then hit equals and it'll tell you how long the port should be.

okay..but aint the subwoofer enclosure calculator on there is for round ports?

quoted -

Port Length CalculatorTo calculate the port length of a round port, enter the diameter of the port (D), the box volume (Vb) in cubic feet, and the desired tuning frequency (Fb). Here is the formula we use: ((14630000*(D/2)*(D/2))/((Fb*Fb*Vb*1728)-(1463*(D/2)))) Please compare your answers with other programs that include other allowances such as tapered ports.

aint i need a slot port calculator?

PandaS10 · 07-09-2008, 02:36 AM

you don't NEED a slot port, but if you'd rather have one, you can find the specs for the vent on one twelve and multiply by the number of subs. like if you need a 1.5 x 15 inch slot thats 22 inches long for one twelve, and you wanna run two, then you need a 1.5 x 15 inch slot thats 44 inches long or a 3 x 15 inch slot thats 22 inches long. its just adding.

AVNCHRIS · 07-09-2008, 10:39 PM

okay..still kind of confused.
okay i get where u come up with the number for the sub and add it to have 2 12's and everything.. what i dont get how would i know what it goin to be tune too?

AVNCHRIS · 07-10-2008, 12:59 AM

anyone else judd? paint ?

gotta a new design.. ? maybe better ?
calculator REAUDIO.com
what is a good tune? i just put 32hz..

AVNCHRIS · 07-10-2008, 07:59 PM

okay change in plans..
goin to try a diffent box this time and tune correct this time..

my question is kickers say for a ported box 2.25cubic ft. so i time it by 3 since im running 3 kickers? (6.25cf)

AVNCHRIS · 07-11-2008, 01:18 AM

anyone atleast

AVNCHRIS · 07-18-2008, 02:31 AM

bump 2 late

sound great. and better then the other box..

Port tuning is based on enclosure size. Port area is based on the woofer.

skinnyg · 07-18-2008, 01:18 PM

take thos subs out and put in some subs that are worth a shit

right but would he not double the enclosure size as well if running two subs rather than one?

I got to thinking that that was a possibility; but haven't checked if it works out that way with a calc. If it indeed works out like that, I'll give you signature-quality props.

danssoslow · 07-18-2008, 09:51 PM

By got-damn 97dimedrop, you are absolutely correct!!!
I had no idea that it worked out like that. I appreciate the knowledge; and hope that others will take this useful with them when they decide to build themselves a ported enclosure. Thanks!

Will that do?

You are a buff sumbioch, 97dimedrop! I'll hang your picture in front of my weight bench, as a goal of achievement for myself! Thanks!

I'll throw that one in there, just in case the first one wasn't enough.

tspears · 07-18-2008, 11:19 PM

what website is that that u can get the box pics like that. i'm running six jlaudio 12w6's in a slot port box in a two door blazer and i need to builld me another box to get my airspace right, the box was built for w3's so i dont quit have anuff airspace
