6" flared port too big for a single 12?

[DeuceLee 10+ year member]

for a CVX, with ZX750.1...so is 6 inches too big?

while you're at it, you can help me decide how big to make the box...

i was thinking 2.5 cubes, kicker recommends 1.75 to 2.25...would making it 2.5 or 2.75 be too big??

thx

i would do 2 tuned to 32-34, it will have waaaaaaaaay better high end extension than a 2.75 or 2.5 cube box and you wont ever bottom the sub out especially tuned to 32. i would just do a slot port and be done. you shouldnt have any noise if you do 16"of port area per cube.

1 6" is just about perfect.

so for a single 12" ap/spl with a box of 2.5ft^3 and tuned to 35hz, 1 6" flared port would be perfect? also what diameter for the port?
