Money in paypal waiting if someone can do the design very quickly, with a good solid design, and a good cut sheet and detailed layout.

Just let me know what you charge.

 
My Jimmy's Resonant frequency is right at 51hz and previous enclosures tuned to 42-43hz peaked out on the TL at around 47-48hz. Now not sure if it is true but I was told to peak out my numbers to tune a little higher at 46-48hz. NOW I do not like the outcome of the sound from this at all as it seems like every box I have tuned over 40hz does not sound the greatest besides the Nightshades I did a while back.

I would much rather prefer 30hz or so BUT this is not going to give me that great of numbers on the TL.

So this is why I am trying to find someone that can come up with a design that WILL be a ported enclosure tuned a little higher than I normally would for the TL and then plug the ports for a sealed enclosure to have a good bass response for my daily driving.

Anyone out there have GOOD experience doing this let me know as I need this design done TODAY.

 
Ok I understand they are very good sounding woofers as I have used them in the past and now have basically went full circle right back to them as they were the loudest best sounding woofers I have used.

This is just from my experience and my opinion from what I have used in the past few years.

I would love to just tune the box to 33hz or so BUT this is from what I am being told going to lower my TL score substancially. Which is why I am looking at tuning high and plugging ports for a SEALED enclosure for good bass response for daily listning. Is this just a bad idea or something? I have built lots of boxes here in the past 2 years and have been trying to come up with something besides a 2 box set up one for daily and one for comps, or removable ports to change out and this is what a few said they had great experiences doing.
