Gold Member Username: SouthernrebelMonroe, Louisiana USA Post Number: 2233 Registered: Mar-04 | cars resonant a different freqencies...if you tune your box to have peak output at your vehicles resonance freqency you will a high SPL. A box tuned like this will be a 1-note wonder though (not to be used for daily listening...just for SPL comps) that box is better...but you still wont have enough port area. you will need ~70sq inches of port area or you will get port noice. |

Gold Member Username: Tdeaton1021Near Tampa, Florida USA Post Number: 2054 Registered: Sep-04 | hey marshal, how do you determine how much port area is needed? because if 2 SEs need 70sqin and you said 100sqin would be more than enough for my 2 15 mags and they have over double the excursion of the SEs. just wonderin. |

Gold Member Username: SouthernrebelMonroe, Louisiana USA Post Number: 2249 Registered: Mar-04 | a decent rule of thumb is 12-15sq inches of port per cuft of box. 100sq inches is plenty for nearly any pair of 15's in ~8cuft. |
