[QUOTE="KingArthur2016, post: 8745006, member: 683005"] Okay so here’s my box question: The sub I’d like to use has an f3 in a ported box of 22hz. The sealed f3 for a smaller box is a lot higher at 46hz. I listen to a lot of edm and sorta oldschool dub so I’d really like that lowness. However if you think that a sealed box is going to keep things from sounding ‘sloppy’ I guess it would be better to sacrifice some low to keep things tight. They recommend a 1.5 cu. Ft. enclosure for this sub. However it looks like most boxes at that volume aren’t tuned at a 22hz f3. So would it be better to buy a sealed box of the correct volume and add my own port? I have this equation from 'Car Stereo Cookbook' to get the port dimension/length. Is there a better way to get a properly tuned box? I’m not really trying to build anything I don’t have the time.
