Posted June 6, 201213 yr hey guys, im about to build a ported box to sit on my back seat, just for a little fun. amp is an saz1500d@1 ohm wired up to a diehard gold with 2/0 welding cable I realize box recommendations are 1.5 to 2 cubes ported at around 30-35hz with 12-15sq inches of port area per cube, but i was wondering if there was something more exact due to my lower power and config (being in a truck on the seat)its going to be a slot port because im going to use re's box calculator. oh and i planned on going sub firing up and port facing the windshield, is this a good or bad idea?im just looking for a daily street beater Edited June 6, 201213 yr by Blazinloud
June 6, 201213 yr I would go for 2 cubes and 30 sqin of port tuned at 35hz.I've tried a few different designs with mine in that range and I found this to be a good setup for what I like. You may find you want something higher or lower tuned. Either way I would shoot for the higher end of airspace since you aren't overpowering the sub and don't skimp on the port area.Lastly I prefer to use Torres calculator instead of RE. It is a little more accurate.
June 6, 201213 yr is this a good or bad idea?It's a dangerous idea, unless you have a way to secure the enclosure

June 7, 201213 yr ^ya im going to try a seat belt loli have 2 sd-2 10's behind the seat but its just not enough One 12 is most likely not going to be louder than two 10's. As for securing the box I really wasn't kidding. Having something that heavy loose in the cabin is very dangerous.
