[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8460481, member: 650438"] Never said you were wrong lol. I assumed that first post was just a typo meant for a 15 too. I got similar numbers too with that one so yes BBpro is accurate. However your port area is on the low side of things and i'd try to account in 2ndary baffles, bracing and sub displacement. The owner of the black nasty, Andrew McCullough has done a lot of testing with soundqubed subs as well and here are his results for a nice workable range with the HDC series [URL="http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/187809-hdc3-hdc4-optimum-enclosure-size/"]HDC3 & HDC4 Optimum Enclosure Size - Subwoofers / Enclosures - SMD Forum[/URL] I had my hdc3 18s at 12.5 cubes and 16.5 port area per cubic feet at 205 ish sq inches of port and they did well up top and down low to 25hz. Output could be gained with a higher tuning but I my vehicle peaked a bit higher so i tuned a bit lower at 35hz to compensate. [/QUOTE]
