Ive have had both 12's and 15's before and just prefer 15's I guess. I have a dc lvl 3 12" right now and before that was a 15" BL love them both. As i said i am not against using a sealed box either. I have never used aero Ports before but wouldn't mine using them given someone who knows more about them would chime in on a good design for them

I don't have the sub yet, I have ordered it though.

I am trying not to build the box in the car so I'm limited as to what will fit through the opening. My max dimensions for height and width are 17" h and 34" w, the depth I am unsure of the max but i know for sure that 34"x17"x18" will fit.

Alright so on the torres calculator what value would I put in for a u shaped port like I have pictured? Is it the total length of the middle of the port? If so my math is spot on and I would have a gross volume of 4.81 cubic feet, with 3.5 cubic feet after all displacements. With the box tuned around 30 Hz and 13.2 port area per foot. Seems to me like it would be a decent box for a xcon. I looked at the predesigned boxes on the website but those are a bit too wide. I may also build a sealed box since I know I can fit the optimal size, whereas this ported is slightly smaller than the optimal 4 cubic feet. Anyway here are the specs, does this seem decent?

Ill check those out, but correct me if I'm wrong, with inside dimensions of 25x15.5x15.75 wouldnt I be at 3.5 cubes? And that is without the port volume. I have heard that re is inaccurate thats why I was trying to make my own in sketchup, I can't seem to find a link for torres, it takes me to a site that is out of order any help?

I have been messing around with SketchUp to design a box for my 15 Xcon, I have only built a few boxes all of which I used the re box calculator so this is new for me. I'm looking for any suggestions or recommended changes to what i have so far, as far as port area and tuning frequency. This is based off an estimated max size 34"w 17" h 18" d. (I'm going to make a test cardboard box to see the largest size that can fit through the opening)

For the rebuild so far I have ordered 1 15" Xcon(still waiting), and I'm going with a C2 Audio Recon 1.4(pre-ordered/still waiting). Replacing my front speakers with a set of JBL MS62-C components powering them with a Execution Audio 60.4. Undecided about the rear speakers, most likely going to leave them in until they decide to give up on me. Still need to purchase some 1/0 SHCA OFC, speaker wire, extra battery(s) for the rear, possibly a H/O alt if my voltage drop is significant (right now i don't drop below 13.8 on ~900w total rms) and of course materials for the box.

The first time i saw SSA was on Youtube back in high school, never got around to joining the forum until now. I recently purchased a SSA Xcon 15 and I'm patiently waiting for it figured I would join the forum.

No questions yet just signing in first post on the forum, I'm sure ill have plenty of questions once I get started on the rebuild.

Like the title says, I've always had systems in my cars and followed forums like SSA and SMD back in high school, for the past couple of years I've cut back and now I'm started to put together a new setup for the spring. Currently I'm running a Kicker ZX700.5 with Diamond Audio components in the front doors, Alpine Type R 6x9's in the rear deck and a DC lvl 3 12".
