box design

[layedouton20s 0]

i want to design a box for my 10in ssds. i kinda wanted to go ported so they require at least .9 of airspace after displacments. the space i have to work with is 53in long 15in tall bottom depth around 11in top around 4in.

its going in a standard cab s10 so if anyone has better ideas that would be cool i just kinda wanted to go ported this time instead of sealed but if i cant it aint no problem

Small box + low tuning = long ass port. Your biggest challenge is going to be getting a port (or ports) of sufficient area to fit. How deep are the subs and how much power are you thinking about? Also what coil config?

they are 6in deep and i am putting a fosgate t1500x1 on them and they are dual 1 ohm.

like i said im alright with doing a sealed box i just wanted to try a ported one.

Subs are going to be a tight fit for depth reasons. Gotta figure mounting depth, material thickness, space behind the motor for the pole vent to breathe and clearance for excursion. Not saying it is impossible but it will be tight.

2.7 cf tuned around 27hz should do OK. Problem with that is that you will need a large port to keep port noise at bay with that amount of power. Not sure how you could get it all to fit.

i think im just going to go sealed
