Silver Member Username: BoomtankRochester, NY USA Post Number: 273 Registered: Oct-06 | that is what it comes out to be 2 3" ports 8.36" long for the single 2.5cu^ft box but thats 84sq^in of port seems like a little much for a 2.5cu^ft box. even at 16sq^in per cu^ft thats only requiring 40sq^in of port face. but if thats what RD recommends then it should work out nice. |
Silver Member Username: Killer44Ontario Canada Post Number: 882 Registered: Dec-04 | yeah but i got two subs so im building one big box...and my questoin was really about usign the 6" tube port in a 5cuft box for box subs... |
Silver Member Username: Koz1031Monticello, In United states Post Number: 435 Registered: Jul-04 | You don't really want to put both subs in the same box. Not without a partition anyway. Even tho 5 cuft is right for 2 subs. It is way to big for 1. which would happen if for some reason you loose a sub. If I were you, I'd rethink this a little. |

Silver Member Username: Killer44Ontario Canada Post Number: 884 Registered: Dec-04 | u know what it might be better for me to put both in seperate enclosures(well one big box with a divider...b/c if my stock alt dosent put out enought to run the 1750.1 @ 1ohm then i can run one of the subs @ 2ohms until i get my ho alt...logan what do u got ur alpha tuned too...rd reccomends 38hz....u think i should go lower, im used to tuning around 32-35hz for daily...but im thinking they would know what frequency is best... |
