Enclosure Opinions...21" Warden in Dodge Magnum

[DropDownLowYota 10+ year member]

I spent hours designing this but I wanted to see everyone's opinion...

Dimensions are 23.5x39x21

Box comes out to 32.9hz at 7.81 cubes with 91 inches of port(which is the biggest I could make it after messing around with the port and I wanted a port with 1 common wall. What do you guys think about this enclosure with the amount of port area?

Anyone? geeze there's people commenting on enclosures for 2 12's and nobody cares about the 21 i guess

It will work just fine. Not optimal, but will still be decent.

How can I make the port area larger while keeping the tuning low?

Seems small to me...

9 cubes

If that is your max space, than you'll need to use aero ports. 8 cubes is ideal for a 21" warden

The thing is there's absolutely no way to get 100+ inches with the tuning so low. So I should use aeros then? I did the calculations and aeros shower half the port area...is that alright? And so 91 inches for the original design is bad?

 

[Flastrongman 10+ year member]

the 91 sq inches isn't bad, just not ideal. If you use aero ports you'll gain some airspace back and can get away with lower port area.

I believe with aeros ill be able to do 2 6" aeros and have the box at like around 8.5 cubes. Guess I can try that. Thanks a lot for your help. Gonna build in about 2 weeks that's why

just be careful if you plan on going over 3500rms on that sub, the coil leads like to fail

In the future I was actually planning on putting 4000. What do u think I should do as far as the sub handling the power and the box being pretty large in volume

Actually I just got a new recone I guess they started to sew the leads in the spider now

hopefully that solves the problem.

I hope so too I hope it's not like the first generation btl's my leads kept breaking I had to solder that thing left and right. But yeah thanks for the help I'm actually not too familiar with aeros but ill figure it out somehow like I have the design for the aeros I just am not too familiar with cutting the pipe and gluing the flares on I'm going to buy the 6" aeros off parts express

are the 2 6" aeros enough for a 21?
