New box. Looking for some suggestions

Motha Ducka Gold Member Username: Ducka Shelby Twp., MI United States Post Number: 1461 Registered: Jan-08	Posted on Sunday, July 11, 2010 - 18:25 GMT Im going to build a box for 2 12" idmax v.2's. I am thinking that I will build it to about 5cuft before displacement and tune to 28hz. I plan on using Precision ports. I was wondering what size? and how many I should use? Basically I am looking for loud and low. Any suggestions?

For 5 cubes, if it was me, I would want over 30 square inches of port. But that's just me.

I just used a 6" one recently on a 5cu.ft. enclosure I built for a 15", and it rocks! Very well made too.

I think i want to do a tad more since i will be upping power and the idmaxs move more air. Would 1 6" have more port area than 2 4"? area of a circle = 3.14(pi)r^2 so i would assume 6"port would be 3.14x3^2=28.26sqin 2x4" port would be 3.14x8= 25.12sqin right? if that is the case i will probably go with 1 6"
