[QUOTE="mebcop, post: 6147808, member: 611729"] Well, I built my first ported box a few days ago and it SUCKED. Not enough port area and there was port noise GALORE. So I quickly built a sealed box for now.... I was pretty happy with how it sounded but everyone I've shown who actually knows something about stereos said "PORT EM!!!" They are two Type-R 10's. I did some calculations and ran a few different ones through the REAUDIO calculator.... My LARGEST dimensions are 33W x 17H x 13.5D Using the largest dimensions, and using the re calculator it came up with 2.82ft^3 net volume, with a 24.75" long 2.5" wide L-Port which is tuned to 35Hz. I have a buddy that has had these 10's before and he recommended 1.2ft^3 each... so I did some more calculations.... If I use 33w x 15 x 13.5 with the same length/width port it would be tuned to 36hz and it would have a net volume of 2.46ft^3... Just lookin to see what people on here who know what the hell they're talking about have to say about it.... PLEASE don't recommend "you need 2ft3 per sub mann".... my max dimensions are really my max dimensions.... Thanx!!! [/QUOTE]
