Anyone know of a site that will give me box building plans. I tried a few but while entering the sub specs it got a little confusing. I guess what im looking for is something where I can input the size box I want(LxWxH), the number and size of subs, and type of box(sealed or ported), what I want it tuned to, and it gives me the instructions and dimensions of all the boards. Is that too broad? In the past Ive only used prefab boxes but Im hearing great stuff about custom boxes that make almost any sub sound great if its built right. I want one of those!!!

I use the subwoofertools.com one as well. Easy to use. Boxes have always sounded good.

FYI...when using subwoofertools you can change the xmax number to get the desired ^2 of port area. Your subs actual xmax might not give you the right amount.

That subwoofertools site is AWESOME! How do I know if I have the correct port area. Also what should I tune my box to if I want insane bass. Ill be using two 12'' Type R's.
