How does this design look?

Recommended Posts

What do you guys think of the design? Its for a DC lvl 4 12'' sub

How would I factor in a kerfed port to the design???

If the kerf is secured as an external portion of the port, will it affect tuning or require a change in design anywhere?

Specs come to:

-2 cubic feet before subs displacement

-32.5hz tuning

-36.25 sq inches of port area

bump, want to buy materials tomorrow.

I probably wont do the kerfed idea, i've heard there is no 'audioable' difference, and this is NOT for competitions, just for daily driving so...

Does the design look good to you guys?

All looks pretty good.

The only think I would change would be making a 45 at the bend on the inner wall of the port. That way It would be an even width all the way through the port.

I believe he means if you were to use the kerfed port that you should add the 45 degree angle to both the inner and outer part of the port not just the outer part of the port.

I agree that you can just forget the kerfed port. It will not really make a difference in sound.

The one thing that I would recommend is the use of bracing. You should use some bracing for the walls of the enclosure. This will help to prevent any flexing of the material.
