2.0 cubes at 32 hz seems best. Any opinions?

would the size of the port width affect anything??

 

[FunBoyThomper 10+ year member]

actually what would be the difference if i did 32hz instead of 28hz?

A wall socket would be your best bet

That box will be 2.6ft^3 after sub displacement. Unless your port will be outside the box it will not work.

Can you subtract the depth for me so we can get the right amount of cubes please. The width and height needs to be kept where it is

Actually, You need to increase the depth in order for it to work.
