[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8686241, member: 650438"] just a test, open the hatch and play the subs and see how it sounds up front. Also are your subs in phase? Also with your design you have TOO MUCH damn port area. keep that shit at 8-13 port per feet for aeros. You cant build pressure like that. Also why you lost DBs is because you lowered the tuning by taking away the port area while keeping the length. If you made the ports shorter and took off one port, you'll be louder. You can lose cone control with too much port area the box will basically act like its Infinite baffle. Which is what happened with my old setup with 4 18s, I lost a lot of output and bandwidth when I had all 4 10 inch sonotube ports open. I gained more and more as I covered the ports, night and day difference in output. But i had to shorten the ports as well to keep the tuning. [/QUOTE]
