Ported box for 15" AW1571T

[yporippa_808]

I know that this sub is junk but whatever, this is my first system ever. i have no clue about building boxes but i heard that a ported box is the way to go if you want loud bass. i dont really care about the quality. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

these are the specs:

the recommended Ported Box Dims: 1.70 - 3.55 cu.ft.

height: 19 inch

width: 17 inch

depth: 16 inch

19x17x16=5168.00

5168.00/1728=2.99 cu ft

and to find the port:

(17+0.75)x19x16-0.75/1728=3.37

is ths correct? i dont know what the 3.37 is //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif though is that how big the port is??

try drawing something in MS paint to show us what you mean. Then host it from http://www.imageshack.us.

Also what size are you going to make you port? Round or squeare. Like the width and height of the port then i will help you figure rough length.

i dont know what size i should make the port... i was going to make it rectangular though.

 

[yporippa_808]

here is a little diagram, how big should i make the red lines?

you are not going to fit a very wide port on a box that is 17" wide with 15" being used for the sub and 2 1/4"" used for the thickness of the wood since you will have 3 boards. 2 outside edge ones and one internally for the port. So you need to make your face wider.

so should i make the width like 21

18x21x15=5670

3.28125 cu ft

height:18

width:21
