Posted June 18, 200817 yr New to Fi and just picked up a 18" btl. Need some suggestions on box size and tuning. I have about 10 cubes gross before driver and port. Looking to do a sub up, port back, tuned to maybe 35hz with 4k of power. A few have said that these have tremendous bottom end so I'd like to tune appropriately.
June 18, 200817 yr I'd do 5-8 cubic feet @ 32hz.... with about 12-16 square inches of port area per cubic foot of volume.
June 18, 200817 yr Author I'd do 5-8 cubic feet @ 32hz.... with about 12-16 square inches of port area per cubic foot of volume.So 128 in of port x 24" length to tune to 32hz?
June 18, 200817 yr Personally and from my experience with the 18 BTL I'd do a 7 cubic ft box with about 98 square inches of port...As far as length @32hz (which sounded the best for daily and great output) you're looking at a port length of about 26.22" long port
