[QUOTE="SAPHORZ, post: 8625302, member: 673950"] I have a 2014 ram 1500 single cab. I changed my mind about the subs im going with now that im back from deployment (yayyy). I am soon to be purchasing 2 Sundown Audio SA-12 D2s and with a Crecendo BC2000d. After measuring my truck, i can deal with a wedge box 17” high, bottom depth of 11”, top depth of 5”. Using 3/4 inch MDF, if i build a sealed box 41” in width , that will give me 2.3xx cubes. Sundown asks for 1 cube each (sealed). with a .14 displacement, I figured 2.3 will give me room for a brace or 2. Here is my question: If i build a ported box with those same dimensions using a 59” width, it will give me 3.35 cubes (1.5 each is recommended not counting .14 displacement) but i only have 59.5 inches of usable width behind my seats. Since the top depth is only 5”, i figured i would use an aeroport mounted low on the side. Is the remaining 1/2 inch or so of clearance enough for the port to breath so close to that wall? If so, what size aeroport would i need (diameter and length) to have a 32-35hz tune with proper port area? Or am i better off just rocking the sealed box? Thank you very much [/QUOTE]
