[QUOTE="Lowlacs, post: 8123732, member: 642968"] I am in No way a professional but I have built prolly close to 100 boxes for myself and my buddies over the yrs. Im sure someone will chime in if a say somethin wrong but I will try to help u. So ur xfls will like anywhere from 2.5-4cubes ported and the tune is entirely ur preference. Usually if u plan to overpower the sub the enclosure should small to support the sub and if u lack in power a bigger box helps to be louder(not always). Ofcourse the port placement and tune will also dictate the sound of any paticular box. Generally u want to place the port opening and the sub on the same plain and usually try for between 10 and 15sq inches of port per cube. Not knowing any of the other important variables such as power and/or ur musical tastes ect. Id recommend 3cubes tuned around 35hz with 36in of port. Id also suggest u try the enclosure calculator on the12volt .com There u can manipulate the numbers until u find what u like or feel comfortable enough to build. A common chamber box for those 10s with a slot port on one side would be a simple start. Please remember I am not a pro, and this was all just a shot at helping. [/QUOTE]
