[QUOTE="xluben, post: 2510162, member: 568852"] do you realize you need to account for port and sub displacement when figuring net volume? so for that 3" port and a 10" sub you could assume around 0.12ft^3 of displacement. but that recommended port is only 7in^2 of port area and tunes the box to 38Hz. port is too small, and tuned too high. i'd go for [I]at least[/I] two four inch ports (for both subs combined) and tune to 35Hz or lower if possible. assuming a decent amount of driver displacement and the correct port displacement: to get a 2ft^3 box tuned to 32Hz you need: 2.65ft^3 of internal volume (before displacement) two, 4" diameter ports, each 30" long just an example, but i hope that helps!
