DIMENSION : 15-3/4"W x 15-1/2"H x 20"D

well assuming its a perfect triangle (which its probably not) and those are the external dimensions... between 1.1 and 1.4 cubic feet

to really know if this box is worth a crap, we also need to know how long and wide that port is.

haha didnt even see the port that throws it out the window, 1.1-1.4 was gross, i'm going to assume this is for a 10" cuz if its not, its too small... re recomends 1.0 cube tuned to 35hz and thats the compact version, i don't think that box is big enough, unless thats like a 2" port and then the port isnt big enough

a 2 inch port wouldn't be the worst thing for a 10. that's bigger than 2 inches. looks like maybe 5 or 6 inches, in which case, a 35 hz tuning in 1.2 cubes, the port would be way too long for that box. that box is tuned really high. maybe 50hz.

agreed... is it flared maybe? like 5" opening 3 inch port? still tuned high even at that, and if its not tuned high the port is so long the box is like .7 cubic feet lol

This is the deal,my wife bought this box for me just being nice, and i dont want to hurt her feelings.

The port is 3" round and 12" long.

I have to RE SRs that i had planed on putting in a sealed box,but i have two RE SEs that i was going to build a ported box for.

I'd hate to have to buy another SR just to use this box.

Guess i could take the port out and run a SE sealed in it?

just buy a cheap spl only sub. MA audio is a good choice. maybe she won't notice. they're both black, but the MA is a 50$ sub.
