Posted July 31, 201015 yr Can someone check these calculations?Height:20Width:38Depth:14Port Length:25 1/8"Port Width:3"These are externals.Thanks for any help
July 31, 201015 yr Author Huh?what do you want to know>?WOW, Lol sorry, internal volume before sub displacement and tuning.
July 31, 201015 yr Length x width x height / 1,728 = Gross internal volume. Remember to take the wood thickness for the port (example - 3" wide should actually be 3.75" width etc.)
July 31, 201015 yr assuming .75" mdf, your around 4.8cubes and vaguely 32hz...But first select the tuning you want and make port length adjustments, not the other way around..
July 31, 201015 yr Author assuming .75" mdf, your around 4.8cubes and vaguely 32hz...But first select the tuning you want and make port length adjustments, not the other way around..is that 4.8 without port volume displacement...the reason Im checking calculations is because i worked it out and got around 32 hz with a 3.66 internal volume...thats figuring for port displacement and for 15"btl which is .21 ft^3.Thanks for your help guys just want to be sure im accurate
August 1, 201015 yr Assuming 3/4 inch MDF, after all displacements 3.73ft^3 @ ~35hz ~14.9 in^2/ft^3I'd really seriously consider a double baffle and some bracing with the BTL.

You're putting a very very very heavy woofer on 3/4" MDF is just a sign for disaster, are there any plans for bracing?
August 1, 201015 yr Author Not my box...but i am assuming he is going to want a double baffle as long as we can get it on one sheet of mdf...
