IA DP 15" enclosure help

[seedubs1 10+ year member]

Since I can't really find any definitive answers, I'll see what you guys think. Normally I'd go off of the TS specs, but they aren't available for the DP's, and the recommended box size is a large range on IA's site.

Doing 1 new style IA DP 15"er off of a DD M2 amp (about 1500 RMS after IMP. rise and all I'm figuring).

Listening to mostly rap.

So what I'm thinking is 4 cubes tuned to 32 HZ. Not sure on this, though.

And either:

50 sq inches of normal port

2 6" aero ports

3 4" aero ports

Thanks for any help guys.

I actually did my 3 DP's in 9.5 cubes net with 3 6" aeros tuned to 34 Hz. However, I had 2 Crunch GP 3000D pro's strapped to the woofers so I had considerably more power than you. I would go with the 4 cubes 32 Hz 3 4" aero's if I were you. This should be ideal for that woofer.

Thanks man, much appreciated.

I figured that going with a full 4 cubes after all displacements would help the driver out with efficiency.

My only concern is going too big on the enclosure and having everything sound really muddy.
