I have been plugging a lot of numbers into WinISD, the RE L-Port box calc and a few other free box programs.
I keep getting sizes that are a little larger than the manufacture recommended "optimum" enclosures... Both ported and sealed.
I have ran into this problem with 3 - 5 different models and types of subs. Dayton, Phoenix Gold, Massive, etc.
Specifically, I am trying to design a box for my new Massive Audio Hippo 122. I was thinking a 29 - 32hz tune would be good for a '65 VW Bus.
It calls for 2.59 CF ported @ 36hz. That seems like a pretty high tune...?? I would like it closer to 31 or 32hz, no?
Sealed is 1.58 @ F3 of 68hz! What gives?
A little help would be much appreciated.
Thank you!
