thats per cubic foot, so your looking at 45+ total

i have a single 15 box with 60+ sq in slot port and it works great.

Bump, going to make a new box for this sub

I'm thinking I'll go bigger this time. Something like 69 sq in of port area for 3-3.2 cubic feet (power comes from a 1500D)

What you say?

I'm thinking I may take the port area down a bit. Thoughts?
