[QUOTE="robowens, post: 7147564, member: 628681"] [COLOR=red][B]THANKS FOR THE HELP! Closed![/B][/COLOR] Hey guys, I'm helping a buddy out with his system and we decided to build boxes... something I'd never done before. So I built the two ported boxes for his 12" Kicker CVRs to Kicker's minimum specs in the manual but it wasn't too detailed on the port dimensions... Long story short, they sound like crap. No depth, not really even hitting worth ANYTHING. I'm thinking the problem lies in the depth of the port if that makes sense... I've attached some pics (please excuse the Blackberry...). Pic of the box itself: [IMG]http://img41.imageshack.us/img41/4440/img2011010200002.jpg[/IMG] Length: [IMG]http://img844.imageshack.us/img844/9049/img2011010200003.jpg[/IMG] Height: [IMG]http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/2500/img2011010200004.jpg[/IMG] Port Length on front of box: [IMG]http://img17.imageshack.us/img17/8282/img2011010200009.jpg[/IMG] Depth from end of port to the front: [IMG]http://img703.imageshack.us/img703/7216/img2011010200008.jpg[/IMG] Overall depth: [IMG]http://img521.imageshack.us/img521/4562/img2011010200005.jpg[/IMG] Inside depth: [IMG]http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/6559/img2011010200007.jpg[/IMG] Now the big question... do we just scrap em and start over or modify the port depth or would that even fix the problem?
