  1. All the room I have is 38h-44w-22d...wanna be about 32...I guess ill go with both 18s in one box and one big port. Subs n port forward, I still want my wall.


  2. Each box is 35h22w20deep.....slot ports are 5x15 and 18 total length...its now 2 1/2 inches from the back of the box..I think this is were im messing up. I tryed using torres. I wanted to make the port bigger but I had to make my length go from 15 to 18 to avoid the tunning being way to high. According to torres im at about 36.5hz


  3. I think that where I messed up. I should have left it alone. The ports were 5x9 and 15 total inch long. Ocording to torres it was tuned to 30hz before. It sounded good. But I was told that my ports were to small. So I made them bigger. Now its sounds horrible


  4. I had 2 Soundstream tx1.2000d. . One on each sub. One of the amps stop workin. So I got a refund. I feel stupid because I do feel I should have done one thing at a time. That way I know if it's the ports or the used amp, or both.


  5. i just put in the mesurements in torres and its about 36.61hz...i put in the old port measuremants and it said i was tuned at like 29.2hz..no wonder the lows sounded so good. I only changed the port because a few people on here said that a port of 5x9 and 15 long was to small. so i made it 5x15 and 18 long...now its sounds shitty...also the port in now like 2 1/2 inches from the back of the box. i guess thats not good either


  6. the seat is gone. i have a platform that the the two seperate boxes or sitting on. then i have a wall built. it sounded good when i had the 2 soundstream tx1.2000d hoocked up. them one blew on me. So i bout a used DD z1 amp last week and had the bright idea if making bigger ports. Going from about 31hz to 36-37hz...i guess this was a mistake


  7. Ok I messed with torres to get the port dimensions. I thought I needed bigger ports. I knew the tuning would go up but I didnt know it would turn out bad. I guess I wasted my time this weekend lol. Live n learn I guess. Maybe I need to come up with a box design with both subs n one big box port tubed to 30-32. Might as well if I gotta rip it apart.


  8. I put it on mostly rap...some of the same songs I listen to befor I changed the port and amp. White girl, rack city, on my level, etc....before it sounded really good n clear through out the song. Now it sounds horrible. I can't pin point what's wrong, the ports being bigger or the amp having something wrong with it. Since I have them in seperate boxes, I think I'm gonna redo one of the ports n see. If there is a difference.


  9. I have 2 18s in seperate enclosures. I was told by some others that my ports where to small on my boxes. I had them tuned to about 31hz..so I made them bigger. Should be around 36-37 according to Torres..at the same time I bought a used DD z1 amp and hooked it all back up. Its sounds like shit..wont hit lows for shit. Do you think I tuned to high, or did I get a bad amp? Wtf
