box for 3hp

[jellyfish420 10+ year member]

right now i've got my 15" 3hp in 3.5ft @ 32 off ~1600watt. it has nice output, and the lows are absolutly KILLER, but there are a few things, if you stand at the back of the trunk, on the 30-35hz notes, you can here the port 'huffing'. i've got ~56" port area, and i don't think i'll be able to fit more unless i do something crazy w/ the box. i was thinking about trying going down to about 2.5-2.75, raising my port area and maybe if i can still fit, drop my tuning to around 27.

what do you think? any opinions??

only one opinion?

as said before, either aero ports or flare out your slot port.

aero's will allow you to use less port area but still have the same performance as a slot port roughly equivalent to double its size. this will allow you to get better performance, with out sacrificing box volume.

so i should stick w/ 3.5ft @ 32, and use say 2 6" aeros?
