[QUOTE="gixxer750, post: 6672302, member: 619345"] Hey guys i need box dimensions for an Alpine swr1041d, this is the older type R. I want to go slot ported. sub and port on the same side of the box. it says .6-1.25cuft according to alpines specs, i dont trust that, i have a feeling that it can do better in a different size. I know sometimes a larger or smaller box then what youd normally think can work better. Im going for efficency with low watts. basically what everyone wants lol. according to the calculators ive used it says the best frequency to tune the port too is 28. seems low to me. but im not sure, ive never used this subwoofer befor. I see this box design on the site already 1.25 tuned to 32hz. Im thinking about building it but im just wondering what you guys think. the 1.65 @28 looks good but i dont know if thats to large of a box or not. hopefully someone has experience with these subs and can point me in the right direction to get the most out of it with a good box. ill probably be feeding it 200watts as well. im trying to figure out also what the difference is between bigger boxs and smaller box's, and how much watts your giving the sub corresponds with it. can the box be too large even with lower amoutns of power?
