I have a JL Audio 15W3v1 and I want to build a box for it this weekend. It will be 3.5 cu.ft. ported. What should I tune the box to when using this sub? I am looking for something in the middle, SPL and SQ. So SQL I guess but I want it to sound good but still have good SPL. (Sub up, port back is what it will be if that will make a difference in tuning). What is an average or good tuning for my application? Thanks in advance..

This enclosure is tuned to 29hz. Would this be good? How do you compensate for driver displacement? The black area is the port. The opening of the port is 1.25" and the port ends 1.25" from front of box.... Upload

What don' you understand? I apologize for the black on the side. The port faces you in the picture.

It is only 1.25 inches of an opening but it will be roughly 32" wide... Any coments please... Chad Lee???? Chauncey????? Logan????? GW????? Anyone?????

I would think there would be a noticeable amount of port noise with such a small port. That's merely a guess though.

Someone more experienced would be able to tell you for sure.
