i ported my box but the bass isnt as loud now did i do it wrong

[markak134]

what the hell happend i have a box it was sealed it holds six 12s and each sub in the box is seperatly sealed in a 1 foot cube so i ported each cube six of them with 2d 4L ports

so i thought the would make it 39herts

wtf happend because its not as loud as it was when it was sealed its like so soft now its gay

You need to build a completely new box. You can't simply add a port to a sealed box and expect it to sound good.

:facepalm:

If you go ported, you need more airspace. Like 1.75 cubes each. And not 2" ports. And tuning is closer to 45hz by my calculations.

i guess ill just buy a new box that holds 4 and stop using 6 because i dont think i can make my own box

There are tons of enclosure designers/builders on this forum.

Not that you'll actually listen to their advice...

would it be louder if i tune it to 50 herts lol i can just cut those ports and make then 2x2

acording to this it would be like 49-50-herts

1 cubic ft for a 12"? seriously, i don't even build a ported box for a 10" that small.

[Bumpin' Goalie]

try 7 or 8 cubic feet ported with 3 4" PSP aero ports to 32hz...Make sure it is braced and sealed.

it was a sealed one but i ported it and i think i ruined it maybe it will work if i take all the dividers out the box is
