    what did i do wrong?

    i'm actually kind of embarrassed now that i look at what i did. i just got all excited to try something and had scrap wood laying around the shop. i know i need to get rid of those inline converters but do you guys think a 360.2 would get me around that problem or am i just putting on bandaids? still kinda want everything looking stock but i think i've been avoiding this for quite a while.

    lol. thanks ndmustang. i was just trippin. just wanted to try some different stuff out. i don't know why i didn't realize the port flare would increase the port area. i'm dumb. shipping on prec. ports. or aeroports is killer. more than the part istself. i just wanted to try it out before i bought it. i still really didn't try it out because its not the same. excuse me while i cry in the car out of pure ignorance. all is not lost though, i can still use that test box and use a real flared port right?

    what did i do wrong?

    the 15-16 is what i thought but ndmustang, i think it was, said a 3" aeroport was enough. so, i just tried some pvc and made different lengths just to try it out. i only made it external so i could adjust the tuning. i don't mind slot porting either, i just thought if i built a test box, i could convert it into some glass project. i'm just looking for some direction. sorry, i have the box at work but it is the inside dimensions minus the .11 for the woofer=1.1. lol i wanted the 1.2 but i measured once and cut twice, then ran out of wood. that's why it's 1.1 instead of 1.2. btw i had extra resin so the inside is glassed also. any help before i start rebuilding is greatly appreciated. i only wanted to build a test box to check the output and where i might put the woofer and port. still wanna build some spl box though. also, keep in mind that my whole set up is electrical, amp, sub. no xovers. stock deck, wal-mart converter. lol and before anyone gives me this, i know, dirty signal! but if i can't put out on a dirty signal, i can't put out on a clean one right? i'm planning on a 360.2 just wanna keep everything looking stock. hope this helps.

    stuck on building new box for 10" bl

    thank you guys. reassuring to know i can ask questions and get informative answers.
  14. okay this port thing is killing me. so i don't want too many bends in my port if it's slotted but i need like a 45" port with a 1.5 cu ft box. sorry, 3x10 slot port. now if i use precision port or aero ports, what size do you guys recommend and how long? the reason why i want to rebuild... it's because i have a 2 cu ft box tuned to about 33-35 with 2x12" slot port. kinda want to stay in the recommended or little over. i feel that i'm getting too much port noise. anyone with any suggestions?

    stuck on building new box for 10" bl

    thanks guys for the insight. would two 3inch ones be too much? still gotta try and make it look cool even if it's only one 10.

    stuck on building new box for 10" bl

    wouldn't that give me a port area of 7 sq inches? thanks for replying nd, thought no one was reading this thread. man, getting all frustrated over this stuff. feels like i gotta build the box around the port and it's starting to look huge for just a little 10.

    stuck on building new box for 10" bl

    also, if i wanted to use the same setup i have now, would it be cool to add pieces of wood in my enclosure to raise my port tuning, say for spl?

    sup myron good luck with the set up. alpa, i think i bought it from the japanese guy. anyways, i'm thinking of a box maybe in the 1.1-1.5 range like abunai said. i can't seem to find space to put two four inch ports inside the box. any suggestions. how would this "recomended" enclosure .8-1.2 cu. ft. enclosure sound for spl...? i'm willing to try anything but hesitant to take everything out of the car, rebuild, and not get better results...

    right now it's almost 2 cubes (1.94) tuned to about 33. i plan to rebuild everything. woofer up port back? oh i have a 10001bd on the lookout for a 2k. loaded bl with dual 2's. i didn't want the high tinsles, but they're pretty thick so i'm assuming they are.

    you guys should've came. everyone was cool. mahalo's to sky and his crew for everything. i did a 139.7 on music. that's funny about the mailbox place. is that the one with the po boxes inside?if it is, i bought a bag of styrofoam peanuts from you guys to check the volume of my box.. couldn't find that stuff anywhere. i'm gonna rebuild soon, so i'll keep you guys informed. btw, what do you guys think of aeroports and would it be okay to put two 4" ports far apart or better close together. i'm just in the thinking phase right now so any and all feedback is welcomed and considered. thanks in advance.
