Okay guys I think I may have gotten it down. Can someone please check my work? Any ideas, suggestions, or objections before I go have this cut? Also, can anyone confirm exactly how the port length is calculated at 20" if they don't share the same three walls?
-
Ahhh... Should've known... I just found out my subs will be here Monday. I need a solution! What is the best way to use those specifications above and tune at 32 hz? I'm getting confused how to do the port with the back wall being angled. Any ideas? I gotta build this box this weekend!
-
Both my specifications I gave you are pretty perfect for your application. If the port faces the rear of the trunk and the box is built properly, then there should be minimal bass cancellation. PS: Why don't you have the people that are building it design it? You're going to fork out $200-$500... Might as well make them work for it. 2 12's would be wayyy louder than an 18" as well. You should have more power just for the single subwoofer as it's rated at 1500 RMS.

How are you going to put a subwoofer that's 18" tall in a trunk that's only 15" tall? You just answered your own question. It must fire upwards or downwards. You couldn't fit a 15" vertically either as you'll lose 1.5 in from the thickness of the board. Sounds like you need a smaller subwoofer or a change of plans.

You could probably squeeze this in the trunk: For the 15": Sub facing upwards H: 14" W: 38" D: 25" Port: H: 12.5" W: 5" L: 25" Net Volume: 4.82 ft^3 Port Area: 62.5 in^2 Tuning: 32.04 hz For the 18": Sub facing upwards H:14" W: 38" D: 30" Port: H: 12.5" W: 6" L: 23" Net Volume: 5.95 ft^3 Port Area: 75.00 in^2 Tuning: 32.00 hz It's a bit on the small side but it should fit a majority of trunks. Hope this helps!

gss - thanks for the help... I appreciate it as I've never used that program. Here's my next idea: I calculated all the measurements and whatnot in Torres. Does it look like this is feasible? Torres: My idea on paper: I know it's not drawn perfectly... Just wanted to show you guys what my image in my head was. Not bad for my first time using Sketchup IMO. Did I calculate the dual port correctly? Each port would be 12" deep but I didn't know how to draw it haha. I'm putting in a lot of effort to try and learn... I just need some help from the community to make it rewarding. Thanks everybody.

Can someone tell me: a) Have I done this correctly? b) What is the difference between the two?

...Appreciate the direction, but I have a mac :/

Aight... Change of plans: I DO want them rear-firing. I'd be happy/content creating a box with a circle port... But I have nooo idea how to calculate those. The same specs apply. Is it possible to do a slot port with a triangular/wedge enclosure? Somebody pleaseeee help. I've done many different drawups and designs online with tons of calculations but I know if I was to go with it, I'd eff it up and waste $50 in the end. Sooo BUMP.

Hey all, I've got two 12" SSD's coming in the next few days and I decided to get a headstart on building my box. I've raped the search tool and can't seem to find what I'm looking for. If anyone has some spare time and wouldn't mind doing a fellow enthusiast a HUGE favor, it wouldn't go unnoticed. I'm hoping to get a cutsheet for 2 12" SSD's (ported) for my 2008 Mazda 6 sedan. Here's the preferred specifications. W: 42" (MAX) H: 16" (MAX) D1: 21" preferred D2: 16" preferred Tuned from 30-33hz I'm thinking it'd be cool to have the subs forward-firing at an angle with the seats. Then I could just mount my amp on the trunk side. The angle would take much more advantage of the space but if that's too difficult to calculate I'd understand and just make them rear-firing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I suck at math and don't trust online calculators :/
