This box will be strictly SPL comp only. My box now is my daily because it sounds good.

He already has one loud box that he bought from Ryan. I'm not sure if he has it in the truck yet though...

My single 15" box is 2.5ft w/ 3 4" ports. It's a burp box only. My dual 15" box is 6ft w/ 120" of slot port. It's daily friendly. Both are loud at any power level.

I will buy a NS 15 very soon, I need to know about the smallest vented box that will work with 1500RMS (RF T1500-1BD), so what you suggest ???

When you say 2.5cu.ft, is after or before driver and port displacement ?? and what tunning freq ??

Sorry for my english !

I would not run a NS in 2.5 for daily driving, that's way too small to sound good. If you want to burp, then it may work.

For daily, the 3-3.5 cubes before displacement is probably a better range.

I know is not my thread but I'm looking advice for daily use...

I modeled a 3 cubes box with BBPro... tuned @ 40hz, port area 35in^2 it gave me a net volume after displacement of 2.2cu.ft !!! do you think it's ok ???

Doesnt sound like very much port area

bigger box, more port area, /thread

36 hz is a the nightshades sweet spot however I really liked my 32hz tuning I had on my 18's And you are gonna want 3 cubes after all displacement and 56-60 square inches of port..Aeros I believe are the way to go if you can..//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif
