Custom Built Ported Box + Eclipse Titanum = BOOM (PICS INCLUDED)

I agree that the port looks smalll but whatever floats your boat. Other than that looks nice man, im still pondering what sub to buy //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif-Mike

Is it possible that this sub functions in different environments than a traditional sub? I mean, when was the last time you saw a big 12, like this, work nicely in a 1cuft enclosure (.8 after displacement)? Maybe this sub is designed to work in enclosures 1/2 or 1/3 the size you would expect it would take, and maybe the port is the same way. Is this possible for a sub to act like this? Everyone keep saying "2.0 cuft tuned to 30hz would have been better." Well maybe for an eD A, XXX or w7, but don't I had a different sub that may fuction differently than those!?!?

Or am I way off base? (can someone please help confirm or deny my numbers)

Oops, forgot to post the link, here it is...

That Enclosure is 3.7cuft - .19 displacement and ~ .10 port = 3.4 cu ft. Thats higher than the vas of the sub, which I don't think would sound very good.

In the documentation it does not recommend any type or size of enclosure. All they give you is the tiele/small parameters and leave the rest up to you. But with an FS of 27hz it can be used in either a ported or sealed enclosure.

Doesn;t that port make a wooshing sound becaus its so small?
