Ok, I just went to that site to calculate the port size, and based upon frequency and xmax, the port diameter would be almost 7" and the length is like 60". I am pretty sure that isn't correct. What did I do wrong? The xmax is 24 mm, tuned to 28 hz. in a 2.0 cubic foot enclosure, right?

I do like the low bass, so I would probably be better suited to go with 2.0 cubed like you say. I am a newbie to the ported enclosure scene, so how do you tune a port to a certain frequency? Is it just the size of the port opening and port area in relation to the size of the enclosure?

Hello all. I just ordered a 12" RLP and I am going to be running it off an MTX 2300. The sub will get approximately 700 watts rms. I am debating about what enclosure I would like to use in my car. I currently am running 2 JL Audio 12w6v2's in a sealed enclosure and it sounds good, but I am looking for a little bit different sound. I would like it to have the potential for getting loud, but with precise sounding bass. Would I be better off going with a sealed enclosure again, or should I try a ported enclosure? Also, as far as vented/ported, does slot ports or round ones matter?

Hi all. Just ordered a RLP-12 based on the recommendations of several people on sounddomain.com. Can't wait to hear it!
