[jdubbau 10+ year member]

Guys let me know what you all may be able to do to help me I have quite a few box design ideas but need to make my mind up tonight and get started. My info is listed below and I really want something different that most people do not have but also performs well on sq and spl.

Looks like you guys know your stuff so LMK.\

Any help or designs for FREE would be greatly appreciated but let me know if you got some ideas as this should be lots of space to work with and I would hope I can make it to where each sub has 10 cubic feet after port disp and sub disp.

1) Car. 94 Chevy Suburban (DIESEL)

2) Subs. Fi Audio two 18's with BP option:

3) Power. How much power per sub: 1600wrms-2500wrms? 2 sundown 1500's

4) Goal. SPL or SQ: Both really but daily driver with ability to compete meca with good spl. Lean more towards SPL but with the best sq I can doing so.

5) Sealed or portedorted

6) Sub/port placement:Subs fire up and port fire back or up?

7) Max dimensions:LOTS OF SPACE! 48" wide x 26" tall x 48" deep

Desired NET vol and tuning(optional)ort tuning recom to 28hz by fi

9) Finnish:*****

10) Zip code for shipping:N/a as I am building it 47711

11) Additional comments:KERF IT UP.

I just want some ideas and a design if possible depending how much it will run me as I am probably gonna go with something like the fisher design in my avatar as PWK gave me a design similar to this for 2 12's. I dont know if someone else my have some cool ideas before I get started though as I would like to get something in stone tonight before I start to cuttin.

my 18" Q is hittin hardest in about 5.5 cu. ft. box with an 8" sonotube, tuned at 32hz.. peaks at about 38hz.

Had it in another box that was 7cu. ft. hit the lows better, but overall, isnt as loud... my .2

Have you tried two 8" tubes? would probably gain output.

Now were talking guys this is what i NEEDED peoples two cents on there opinions. I actually have a 13 inch pvc port that I have up for sale or trade but I do not think 24 inches will be long enought to tune it correctly for me? I really want to go with a kerf or curved port like in my avatar. I was thinking of porting the bottom with a slot vent all the way across horizontally and curving the port upwards so when the air cam rushing out there was little resistance and it would not come just out but out and up?
