ClevelandFreeman 35 Posted November 19, 2017 Hello, I was looking at the recommended box size for the Flatlyne 15 and it is at 3 CUFT. What is the recommended port area? Thanks. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ClevelandFreeman 35 Posted November 20, 2017 My main reason for posting my question is when I input the T/S parameters for the Flatlyne in a box modeling program, the results are all wacky. Usually when I start a new build, I try to model my box to what I feel like will suit my goals. I am trying to model the smallest port I can get away with a 15 so I can keep my box volume down. The spreadsheet, although useful, does not really help me because it just takes into account the box volume and input power, not the subwoofer. I appreciate the help though. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ClevelandFreeman 35 Posted November 21, 2017 Tricia Wright from Incriminator Audio got me all the info. Pulled the trigger on the 15, thanks! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ClevelandFreeman 35 Posted November 22, 2017 I apologize, I should have shared already. Here are both emails I got from IA: " The recommended ported box specs are 2.5 – 3.5 cubes with 12 – 16 inches of port per cube. Let me know if you need anything else." "The recommended ported box specs are 2.5 - 3.5 cubes with 12 - 16 inches of port per cube. Yes, you can use a 6" aero port if you keep the box around 3 cubes.

ClevelandFreeman 35 Posted November 26, 2017 I have my box modeled up, it will end up being 3.33 CUFT @ 30 Hz. My amp is a DLS Audio CC-500, HPF is set at 30Hz. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ClevelandFreeman 35 Posted December 5, 2017 Thanks. It came out nice. It is pretty heavy, maybe 50 pounds. I can't wait for the Flaylyne to get here. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Simmy 0 Posted December 5, 2017 Nice box. I haven't heard of the duratex before your post. How did you apply it? It looks very nice and I may use it in the future. Hope to see more of this build soon. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ClevelandFreeman 35 Posted December 5, 2017 It is like paint, but thicker. You can use a textured roller.... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ManzKea 152 Posted December 5, 2017 Looks great. Where did you get it from ? Is the texture on the smaller end? I used a deck liner from Home Depot once. It had a nice look from far but up close it was real jagged. And it left dust every time I’d move it a bunch. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
