I have a dual chamber sealed box, I've decided to go ahead and port it to get as much as I can out of my little subs. I have American Bass XD-65s. My enclosure is 0.95 cu ft per chamber. Is this too large? Here's the details on the subs below. I am thinking of going with a 3" diameter aero in each chamber, I just need to know the length. Thanks ahead of time!

Specifications:

impedence------- 4

power (rms)------150

power (peak)-----300

vc (inch)----------1.5A/4

magnet (oz)------60

dcr (ohM)---------3.2

L (mh)------------2.288

fs (hz)------------48.8

sd (msqM)-------12.27

bl ™--------------10.74

qms---------------4.334

qes----------------0.438

qts----------------0.397

n (%)-------------0.113

SPLo (dB)--------82.6

vas (L)------------4.423

Cms (mmm/N)---206.84

Mms (G)----------51.5

Mmd (G)--------- 50.7

Xmax (mm)------8

MD (mm)---------105

OD (mm)---------166.5

OH (mm)---------122

MD (mm)---------105

3" diameter is fine, might need to have it sticking out if the enclosure is not long enough.

 
Id LOVE to build a transmission for mine. I had a pair of kicker impulse 12s in a tline that took up the ENTIRE ext cab of my B2200. But WOW. VERY loud.

What I am doing is for a 2005 extended cab silverado. I have a sealed downfire box for 2-12s under the seat now. What I will do is put the 6.5s in, and port it.

I'm most likely going to aeroport and basically from the front, and 90° to get more length, as the box is just at 15" front to back.
