Looks great, get some when its done I would love to see the finished product. I like the port location, that's what I was thinking of doing. Is that going in a crew cab of Extra cab, looks like extra as its fairly small for a crew. I really hope mine turns out good this time around, I really want it loud AND clean!

Any updates on your box? Also I was wondering what anyone thought of this design, its got a 36" wide by 2" tall port equalling 72 square inches as per Audioque but I just want to know if there is any reason I should not do it like this, it will obviously be glassed on the front and top so that's why its not drawn in as it would be a Beyoch to try and do in Sketch Up. Sub will be forward and raised above the center line about 5" to get the volume up to approx 4.5 ^3 Let me know as I want to get started with this thing so I can glass it and my pods at the same time...

Thanks,

Nobody has any opinions? I just want to know if this will sound ok...and not have a ton of port noise or something..

 

[dappa5 10+ year member]

oh it's gonna need alot of port to sound and then prob still wont bang as hard as ur current setup but will look a million times better thats the price you pay

Well its got considerably more port area than my current 6th order, it only has 56 sq in of area and like 4 cubes, this is going to be 4.5 cubes and has 72" of area, I am just worried about the height of the port, do you think 2 inches is ok? I have heard once that sometimes you can get port noise but I doubt it with this much area, just need some opinions! Thanks!

 

[dappa5 10+ year member]

your doin what a 2x36 in port?

 

[Fuknmovin 10+ year member]

Yeah so its 72 SQ Inches just what AQ saya to run....4.5 ^3 box after displacements multiplied by 16 to get 72, I am just wondering if there is any issue with it being that narrow.

 

[Fuknmovin 10+ year member]

Ok I will assume there is no problem here as nobody has replied, I figured as much, but wanted to be sure..

Well, I finally got to this thing! I still need to get some more MDF for the back wall and bottom but I got the port cut and glued/screwed and the sides of the box cut, I just need to run and get a sheet of 3/4" for the back and bottom. Shitty thing was I had a bunch of pieces that were within 1" of being good but so close yet so far away! I plan on cutting the ring for the sub out tomorrow and getting it all ready for the Glassing! Should be an experience! LOL! I will be making the Glass a minimum of 1/2" thick to try and retain as much rigidity as possible..I really want this thing to sound better than my current box if possible...WE'll SEE!
