box design and port layout

Maybe subs down port foward. And why not go common chamber? You'll save wood and get a lil more room.

did you not read any of the post? and im going seperate because i tavel alot so its hard for me to go pick up a new sub and if i blow a sub i can un hook the wirers and keep going until i can get another.

It could work, but their are alot of bend in that port. If you needed to make it work put 45's in each corner in the port and that will smooth air flow quite a bit.

i can see putting one in the 90 and i was planning on it, but the second? really?

It's really not that many turns (like 1 and a half) so I really don't see why it wouldn't work...


Why would he put a 45 in that second corner? It's not a 90 degree turn...

Yes, my fault. I meant 45's in the first bend. The second bend won't even need an angled shingle in it. I don't see anything wrong with the design. Like i said, it should work fine.

Ok I get the seperate chambers then...And if you look, my post said subs down and port foward.

4th order maybe?

Your design would work fine provided you use a 45 in the 90 degree corner and leave sufficient clearance for downfiring.

would you move the subs forwad or back? or leave them centered up? the port is to the rear of the box fyi.

Probably won't make much difference, so leave them centered.
