So some of you may have followed my thread or read my posts before, but for those that don't this is an install in a boat.
Right now ive built a : shaped ported box for a sundown sa10, tunes to ~32hz.
The box sits in the open area of the boat and the port fires into fiberglass walls .... but basically its open to air.
Do you think a ported box is the right design for this application or could a sealed box be more beneficial?
The finaly plans were to have the ported box in the walkway nose like in this pictures with the port firing forward, and then a small sealed box with another Sa 10 under the drive seat.
Could the fact that this is not in the back of a car or in a trunk render the port useless?
I think ill build the small sealed box first, and listen to it in the same placement as the ported box and see which sounds better then decided, but i was looking for any input...
Here is the current placement of the ported box:
The port is under the white deck which holds another cushion:
