Used to have 2 15" Brahmas.Im not kidding, keep the sealed. You will have less problems

I really don't mean to bug you, but what kind of "problems"?

Well, i would have a reputable box maker do it for me. I was quoted 75 dollars for the box w/ carpeting, and the guy is local so i can just pick it up directly from him. I would not build it myself.

If it's already more than loud enough for you then porting won't help. Even if you do gain SPL (which you would), you'll lose some SQ, which isnt' worth it. Look at it this way

Sealed XXX- optimal SQ, loud enough

Ported XXX-less SQ, more than loud enough

Whats the hold up ?

He should be capable of making plands for it.

He would know if it would fit or not

He said it would fit and already made up plans. But i talked to another box desinger/builder tonite and this one told me its not gonna fit at all. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

I wouldn't mind getting more low end extension, and its very loud, but it can always hit harder i guess. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif I have no problem with that.

Ok, Supa and whoever else, pretend you are in my position. You have a 400 dollar subwoofer and its currently in a prefabbed subzone 1 cube enclosure, do you keep it in this box even though it still sounds pretty good, or go for a ported box?

sorry, i cant put myself in your position

i cant fit my head that far up my ***

hell, just have the box builder with the plans make the **** box already....lol...

how's it NOT going to fit if he builds it to ur measurements??

and IMO, teh xxx will sound better ported as the low end extension is improved. from my experience, the xxx doesn't get low at all in that size (or actually a touch bigger) sealed box...

but hey, i'm probably just trying to mislead you again. u might wanna ask the question about ten more times in ten more threads to get 100 more responses that all say the same thing......but wait, what if they are trying to mislead u as well? besides, u should have enough knowledge not to need anyones opinion on anything...it's not like u listen to anyone anyway.

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/peace.gif.2db28b618ed8d1964ebbe2f5021d2c39.gif

I will refrain from any worthwhile comments in LS1's threads from now on. I suggest you all do the same. Have a good day.

Port it for F-in christs sake. How many times do people have to tell you?

Stop making 20+ page threads. Ask all your questions in one frickin post. It is not hard to do.

Idiot...

I am curious, would this site happen to have a few previous box threads on this particular driver?
