Need help with SoloX 18 and WinISD

[DarkFox 10+ year member]

Hey all,

I am using WinISD to plot a box for 2 soloX 18s, I set it up for 22cu. ft. and 2 ports 20in. by 7.5in. This curve doesent look very smooth to me, but I am comparing it to a box I did for 2 L7 15s that looked VERY nice in winISD. Just wondering how this looks to someone more experianced in winISD and how they think it would sound. Thanks for any help.

that really has a nasty drop off. any reason it needs to be 22 cu. ft?

22 cu. ft was to give it the 10cu. recomended and space for woofer and port. it leaves about 9cu. per woofer with the ports that big.. even when I shrunk the box down though it was pretty nasty.

just played around with it, if I droped it to 10cu. ft then the only thing I accomplish is taking down the peak (loosing outout) but that whole dropped area stays the same... I'm thinking about doing 4 L7 15s instead of 2 SoloX 18s, only because no matter what I seem to do with the X's I get a drop like that, but the L7 box I am building comes out nice.

winISD SUCKS, you'll find out the sound is quite different once you actually load it into a car //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

so are you saying that the specs I layed out are good or bad (22 cu. ft. with 2 ports 20" X 7.5" 21" long
