I want to make a 2x12 vented box. he's putting it in a 96 maxima so its not a whole lot of space, i'll measure it today to be exact. I tried using winISD but i dont really get it? can anyone help me design it? tips please. thanks a lot. |

Bronze Member Username: SnacksQuincy, Florida USA Post Number: 60 Registered: Jul-08 | can anyone help me decipher what this means? 1.75 ft3 (49.6L) + port displacement 2 x 12.5" (5.1x31.8cm) port, 16" (40.6cm) long the 2x12.5" port 16" long. i dont get that. does it mean there has to be 2 ports? |

Silver Member Username: DuckaShelby Township, MI United States Post Number: 353 Registered: Jan-08 | 1.75ft^3+port displacement is the volume of the box minus the amount of space the port takes up the 2x12.5 16 long is the size of the port. 2"widex12.5"tall 16" deep not two ports. That port seems thin to me. You might get port noise. |

Bronze Member Username: SnacksQuincy, Florida USA Post Number: 62 Registered: Jul-08 | yeah, those were the specs given in the instruction manual for the sub. for the volume and port size do I multiply all by 2 since its a 2x12 box? |
