Help Designing enclosure for DD 2515a

[throatrattling 10+ year member]

Looking for some suggestions on a box for my DD 2515. This is the first time I'm building a serious box, so any input is appreciated, especially if you can provide some insight into why those dimensions/tuning would work well.

For size I have no limitations as it is going in the back of a Honda Odyssey (seats stowed).

Construction will be sub facing up, slot port , 3/4" MDF, double baffle, kerfd port, and glassed inside.

As far as power goes, it will be seeing 1500-2000rms off of a crossfire VR2000D at 2ohms (D4 coil)

I listen to a variety of music, mostly reggae. Not sure exactly what tuning to go with so I'm looking for some suggestions on that. Would like it to get as loud as possible while still being musical.

Thanks in advance for any help

3.5 ish tuned around 32-34 would be good but you will have to be very careful with that much power...

4-4.5ft3 with a generous amount of port area is my recommendation. Subs up port back should net a nice overall result.

4.3 At 35 with 17sq inches of port per is what i did locally and it came out great.
