Yes i have tried different positioning and subs forward / Ports up along the back window line yield the highist SPL !

if i lay the box on its back and fire the subs up & port to the rear i lose 2.3db

Everyone always assumes subs up, port rear is best in an SUV. Before my wall, my truck was loudest sub rearward, port out the side. . .

Damn nice score!

Thank you Good Sir :)

i am testing an idea i had,

what i do is measure the distance from the sub too where the mic will be placed then convert the inchs into feet / times 4 / gives me the quarter wave # / i take that # and devide it into the speed of sound 1131 and get the Freq i need to port the box to :)

if i do it x2 i get the 1/2 wave and a lower tuning freq.... for street beet

then i look for a sub with an Fs of 34 or higher and Bammmmmmmmm

what exactly do you mean if you do it x2 you get the 1\2wave? multiplying by 2 will double frequency result... do you divide in half?

In my case, it would be 25 hz, lol Some box i was testin the other sounded pretty loud between 30-33hz then got loud again at 39-42hz then hit the car's Fs at 49-54hz.

ok ill try this !

as an example...

if i measure from the placed sub/cone ---> to where the mic go's ( in the passenger Kick )

and i get 84" - translate that into FEET 7' -

take 7x4 ( 4 / quarter wave ) gives me 28

so i take 28 & devide that into the speed of sound ( 1131 ) equals = 40.39Hz

_________________________________________________________________

if i take that same 7x2=14 divided into the speed of sound ( 1131 ) = 80.78Hz

so with this theory if you want to tune lower go for the 1/8th wave

7x8=56 divide 56 into 1131 = 20.19Hz for a Sq Monster...

if im doing this wrong someone ( cough*M5///*cough) please feel free to step in and correct me :)

i've never really studied this, i've heard about it but never was really interested.

I take it -

1\4wave is for gettin loud, can also be used for SPL comp?

1\8wave is what you say, ultra SQ, hehe

what would 1\2wave be considered? the frequency will always be super high....

in my 2000 Ford Explorer i have 2 Magic #'s 36Hz / & 54Hz

but the exception is when its HOT out side my # dropps too 52Hz ???!!!???

i do not know why this Happens ?

well that should be because everything expands if you apply heat...so that afects the lenght the wave has to travel and it affects the frequency....might not be right but thats how i understand it....

okkk i think my theory is right...say the 7' you used for yor example you add 1 inch or 2 so that ill give you 7.2x4=28.8

so that 1131/28.8=39.27hz....1 hz less than on you example
