I'll tell ya' that right off I see a potential problem... 18 in2 of port sounds low... as I stated... have patience...

yeah he's basically talking about my box works fine but port needs to be bigger fs..

He is correct... I already modeled it and saw big-time compression if you ACTUALLY put 600 watts to it... I'm out at this point... I'm still learning and I've already given too much "advice"...

@Buck can you help this guy out?

Look man ... the airspace is not bad... but that port area is questionable... just give certain members some time...

just try 25 sq in port (so box would need to be tad bigger over all, same cf ad) make sure u subtract sub disp. too should be good

I dont mean to be rushing anyone, im researching as i go so so im already online lol.. This thing keeps getting louder the more i use it! Itll be interesting to hear it in a ported box

I just looked up your amp... with the power you've got ... you should be fine... I'm only leery of Skar specs from personal experience...

Alright i think i have something solid.. I measured my allowable width base on wanting to make a double enclosure. Here are my specs

Width 21

Height 15

Depth 20

Displacements .15

Wood width .75

Port width 2

Port height 13.5

Port length 30

Leaves a net volume of 1.79 and tuned to 34hz which i feel like is close enough.. Ill mess with the numbers a bit more and see what i get but i havent been near my own computer in a while so i cant mess around with winlsd.. These numbers seem to look a little better though. Any input?

it'll be better than the smaller port fs., maybe someone will check it for u..

 

[pathfinderone]

so whats a good rule of thumb here? i feel like theres something im not understanding completely...

 

[BOOMINGRANDPA 5,000+ posts]

most like 14sq in port per cf

People say 12-16 is the target range. Sub and power input dependent.

so I guess that would mean more power bigger port?, yeah my port is way to small lol..

talkin about surface area right? that really opens up my design options a little bit..
