Box design suggestions? Two sundown z15's

[akrod2as 2]

I'm designing a box with the help of the torres box calc and sketchup and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions or if this looks right. I believe I included all necessary dimensions, but if I forgot any let me know. The subs will be mounted on double baffle up top, with rear facing port. Any help/suggestions/comments are appreciated!

Yeah your gonna want more port area, usually the rule of thumb is 12-16in^2/per cube. So if you were shooting for a 5ft^3 after displacements (subs, port and/or bracing), you should have 60-80 in^2 of port area.

shooting for 7^3ft net volume @ 33hz. So shoot for 84 or so inches of port area and good to go?

Yeah that is cool, Jacob told me to shoot for 12in^2/ per cube with my application so that should work.

Not a problem at all, dont forget pictures of the build log and install.

Completely redesigned the box. Double baffled and window braced This ought to be fun!

top is just translucent to show inside.

Nice box! Very similar to what I did with my 2 IA LI15's.

I would have kept it symmetrical but put some wave guides behind the port. just my thought.
