questing regarding VAS rl-p 15"

[post office 0]

The vas for a 15" rl-p D4 is 5.225ft^3 yet the reccomended box volume is 2.1 sealed.

Should i try to make the sealed volume closer to the actual vas or should this spec be completely ignored? I was thinking more like 2/3 of vas which would be 3.1ft^3.

Has anyone questioned this before?

vas is related to the stiffness of the suspension. it's not a recommended or needed volume.

You don't need that much volume. What are you putting it into?

On the RL-p15, I would shoot for between 2.1 - 4.65 cu ft net volume sealed. If this is bein' thrown in a car, the 2.1 cu ft net volume figure will work out very nicely. For home, I'd lean towards the larger size, and perhaps even incorporate some low-end EQ, a Marchund mono bassis if you really want those extreme lows..
