Thats a huge hole

3 Deaf Bonce 15's in a SUV on roughly 5kw. This box took me a while, it was fun. Had to up-fire the port, just because of space reasons. This should be very loud. Aiming for good daily with a decent meter score, that's why the port is like it is.

My step brother got an SSA DCON 12 and wants to port it in his Hyundai Accent. I may hit you up for a design

How do you feel about aero ports?

How do you feel about aero ports?

They have their uses. I like wooden ports better personally, but it really depends on the application. Aeros can be difficult to fit sometimes, with the flares and the fact they don’t bend. PVC works well, in the same way. It’s easy to find PVC elbows, and PVC can fit in tighter situations because there’s no flare. The problem with both of those is that you can’t fine adjust the port diameter.

You could, but it wouldn't be super easy. Since pvc glue chemically bonds pvc, you could cut a section length wise, heat and bend the pipe to touch at the smaller diameter, and then glue it. Likely not worth it, but technically possible.

Swimming pool guys do it all the time.

Change the diameter of pvc pipe? I highly doubt that.

Why do you have to change the diameter of the pipe? Why couldn't you heat and bend the PVC and then use a reducer to go to a smaller diameter from there?

Yeah it wouldn't be easy. Doing an L port is super duper easy compared to bending an aero.

Ok. Buck is continuing to push the limits of my knowledge. I'm going all in, trying to do the best, complicated enclosures I can. I really love experimenting, I'm branching out my skills, combining them, trying to go harder than ever. Has a mild kerf port, too.

So this box is a Hybrid Sealed / Mildly Tapered T-line for 2 Pioneer Shallow Mount 12's (TS-SW30024). These woofers are actually more like 12.5's or 13's, the have quite a large Sd for a 12".

Box looks really good to me. I like the paint choices a bunch.

DC Level 4 12 Series 6th order in a pickup. Be interesting to see how this one sounds.

I need about 18 beers after designing this one, haha jk. Got it done finally.

SoundQubed HDX418 Series 6th Order for a Pickup Cab. Tuned low, pretty low tuning. These subs, to my surprise, have a Fs of about 23 hz, which is surprising for it's 2kw power rating.

So it’s for an extended cab? They’ll have to remove the rear seat? Looks awesome.
