Questions about tunnels or manifolds

Recommended Posts

Does anyone have experience with sub tunnels(diamond,hexagon, octagon) or manifold style boxes?

I was wondering how they are for spl at low frequencies 25 to 30 hz(compared to a straight wall)?

They are generally bandpasses so they do well down low.

What's your goal?

My goal is spl at sub-30hz. The reason why I am wondering about these configurations is that my trunk is large but has a very small opening between the trunk and the back seat(and im not looking to wall yet). So the most I can fit flat with sub and port forward is 2 12's. But I have the cu ft for 3 to 4 12's.

Well you want as loud as you can, break out the plasma cutter and the sawsall and start cutting that opening to make room for a large enclosure to slide into it.

I can expand it by about 2-3 inches after that i would hit the strut towers, I can fit a large box in through the trunk opening. If I decide to make a box as described are there any problems I will run into sound wise?

I don't forsee any sound issues.

Me Neither, Should Be All Good If You Follow The Old Measure Twice Cut Once Rule.
