hey guys i have a single cab chevy with 2 12" rockford fosgate p3 slims with a sundown saz-1500 amp. its pretty loud for a single cab but i still want louder. haha im sure you guys know how that goes. but as far as the port goes how many sq inches of port should i give it and how do i know what tuning is good for these subs. i want it to hit the lows a little better. and should i do a slot port or pvc ports? thanks in advance.

go with aeros less port area needed and much less space needed for ported box

yea thats what i was thinking. but how much port area should i do for those 2 subs?

 

[SWFL 10+ year member]

12-16sq" of port area per cube, with aeros roughly half that so 6-8 per cube one 6" is around 28sq" one 4" is around 12.5 i think

for those two 12's says 1.25 per sub ported so say if you go with a 3 cube box before sub and port displacement could go with 2 4" or 1 6" either way would work just need to check the size of the box and size of the length of the ports the two ports will need to be longer i think not 100% sure

ok that helps. i will probably do two 4 inch aeros. and when you say 4 inch do you mean diameter or length of the aero? and i will probably put the aeros on sticking out of the box to save internal volume of the box. can anyone give me a more definite answer?

thanks a lot,

4" or 6" means diameter

Aero ports are good for sealed into ported. Since they're shallows you dont want them to drop that much. Go with the 4" PVC pips @ about 10-14 inches in length. Should beat quit nicely.

how can you say that? you dont even know the size of the enclosure! or can you read peoples minds or sumthing? No I think your just dumb.

op what size is the enclosure now? ???f^3

its going to be a little under 3 cubic feet after sub displacements but not including port displacements.
