Need Help!!!!!

[fearthepand]

Ok i got some box spes the other day and im completly new as how to build a box any way i have some specs here they r. Could anyone give me a diagram of how this would go together mainly i just need to know where the port pieces would go

14H x 30W x 16D

12.5 x 28.5 x 14.5 INTERNAL

2.98 cu ft^3

-.1 sub dis
-.85 port dis

2 cu ft^3 NET @ 26hz

port 12.5 x 2 x 43

cuts:
2x 30 x 16 bases
1x 12.5 x 28.5 rear
2x 14.5 x 12.5 sides
1x 12.5 x 26.5 front
1x 12.5 x 11.75 port a
1x 12.5 x 24.5 port b

thanks man got any idea about how wide the port should be?

[Worlddre]

2"

[fearthepand]

ok thanks any body care to explain how to read these box specs and how you came up with those answers?

labeled the port dimensions

[fearthepand]

Also does it matter where i mount the sub on the front? Would the center be ok?

[Worlddre]

yup center would be fine....tis where most people mount subs

are you sure that's right? seems like you'd need a longer port, but didn't actually do the calculations.....

nope i checked it. for a slot port it should be 44.71 inches long and a vent port is 45.71.

Yes it is right. I checked it.

[fearthepand]

So r the calculations right? I didnt actually do them myself. Someone else did them.

[fearthepand]

could any body show me hoe to do all of the calculations for ported boxes?

It would take me an hour or two to type up how to design a ported enclosure. And that is just the simple basics. Not how to design using T/S parameters...

[tRiGgEr]

Yes, with a margin of error @ .4hz. I actually got a net volume of 2.05ft^3. But the change would be minimal.

That is a good design on paper.

Sweet thanks man

Could some body correct me if im wrong but aren't the lengths wrong on either the rear or the sides? If i put the box together like it is now wouldnt i have a 3/4'' gap somewhere? If it is wrong if i changed the rear width to 30'' instead if 28.5 would this cause a change in the internal volume or the tuning?

I just checked the cutsheet, your right. It is off. There are a couple of ways to piece the box together. Here is one

Top/bottom - 30 x 16
Left side - 15.25 x 12.5
Right side - 14.5 x 12.5
Back - 30 x 12.5
Front - 27.25 x 12.5

Here it is with the port piece shown...

i just realized that if i changed the rear diminsion to 30'' i would also have to cange the side to 15 1/4''. Would this change anything. Or i could change the sides to 16''. which i think would be easier. I'm just wanting to know if by chaging these diminsions would i change the tuning and or internal volume?

[fearthepand]

hey thanks dude like my question is though would it change any of the stated?

[tRiGgEr]

No. As long as the port area is not effected, it will not change it. Really doesn't matter how it's put together, as long as the external/internal dimensions stay the same.

[fearthepand]

thanks for the help man
