[QUOTE="kickerlivinloud, post: 2352350, member: 552730"] Ok, here's the prob I've run into. I've trying using a couple differnet calculators to tune boxes I've been designing. Out of ceriosity (sp) I tryed putting one of Moe's boxes into the cal. Only 1 big problem, they don't match. I used RE's "L-Ported Speaker Box Calculator" and this one... [URL="http://www.subwoofertools.com/forum/ported-box.asp?Ew=35&Eh=12&Dia=4&Xmax=16&Vd=.1&NumW=1&Vb=1.03&Fb=45&Qts=&Vas=&Fs=&CE=0"]http://www.subwoofertools.com/forum/ported-box.asp?Ew=35&Eh=12&Dia=4&Xmax=16&Vd=.1&NumW=1&Vb=1.03&Fb=45&Qts=&Vas=&Fs=&CE=0[/URL] I also had used another one but I can't find it now, it was very close to the one above. Now I know Moe is most likley the one who is right but he told me about and to use the RE calc, so I would assume he trusts it. I know a lot of ppl are going to say do it the old fasion way and I guess I'm gonna have to learn that way. I've seen the formula and quite frankly I can't make heads or tails of it. I know the tuning has to do with the following... Vol of the box vs. Vol of the port Now making the connection is were I don't have a clue. If someone would take the time to really explain how to PROPERLY find the tune of a box I would greatly apprceate it!!!! I'm just tired of using calculators to later find out they are not giving me proper tuning... My SN is in my sig if IM would be easyer then responding Thanks! Jon [/QUOTE]
