Can someone please help me out w/ a ported box design for a 12" Q. Box can be up to 15" tall and 33" wide, its going to be in a trunk so should I put the sub firing up and port to rear?
Whats a good box volume and tuning, I want spl and lows. Thanks for any help.

Heres a link for specs, its the 12" D2

Would you please post the specs here. I feel kinda wary clicking a link from a guy named virus. No offence.

Did you try subwoofertoolsdotcom?

"I feel kinda wary clicking a link from a guy named virus. No offence."

haha, none taken, just a nickname.


"Did you try subwoofertoolsdotcom?"

Yes, the box I have the Q in now is from the design that subwoofertools gave me. Just wanted to build a box that was focused a little more on spl. I tried using winISD and BB6P but windows vista doesn't support the help section so I'm not sure how to enter the info in the right way.

Heres the subs specs:
Fs 27.1Hz
Re 1.4 Ohms/coil
Qms 5.63
Qes .48
Qts .44
Mms 231g
Cms 0.15mm/N
Sd 481cm^2
Vas 48.3 l
Spl 84.8dB 1W/1m
Bl 15.1 N/A
Xmax27mm
Rms 1000W
Mounting depth 7"
Displacement 0.16cuft

If any additional info is needed let me know

Also heres the current box I have.

Is it possible to design a box with a straight port or L port instead of running the port back and forth?

I'm thinking a box somewhere between 2.2cuft@30Hz and 2.6cuft@34Hz would be good.

'Tis. Less bends is a good thing.

Exactly, so I need a box at 2.2cuft@30Hz or 2.6Hz@34Hz w/ a straight port?
I just need someone to help sketch one up for me cuz I'm not to good w/ that sh!t

Would this box be better than the one I have now if I changed it around a little. Maybe wider port and run it along the side and back like an L. Could someone draw this up for me?

Marc thanks for the layout so is the port supposed to be wider in the back then the side? And all the panels are the same length as the box I posted? How wide is the port?

also would I need to make the purple peice longer to make up for taking the space from the bends out. and if I made it longer would I have to increase total box volume.
