Posted September 23, 201212 yr Little problems nothing serious. Built enclousure for some 18inchrolling zcons limited on space but couldnt pass the offer up on some z's. Box is small for ported box and tuned high with a smallamount of port are, basically if you could mess a box up and screw yourself over in output this is the box. 180inchs of port area withc4.5cubes per 18 tuned at 40hz not that happy with the output even on a .5ohm load on a sendo with electrical back it up. My question iss would i see a day and night difference if i built a single 18 box the biggest i could build out of my space? Pics of the franksteinvbox xustom finish on it.
September 23, 201212 yr 4.5cuft is too small to get low end out of it.Now, if it were like 6-7cuft tuned to 40hz, it would get deeper but obviously if you were to rebuild, you'd have control over tuning as well.
September 23, 201212 yr Author i want aim for 35hz with 200inchs port area with 7cubes after port and displacement of sub. not shure thats enough port or too much.

September 23, 201212 yr Author Louder on the ear for daily if i would run one single 18 in a proper box rather then two . Only reasoningwith is reducing one to a 18 is alot of cone area going away. Edited September 23, 201212 yr by Dictator
September 24, 201212 yr So am I reading this right? The box you have now is 180 in^2 PER 18?I think he means 180in^2 of port TOTAL with 4.5 cubes of volume PER sub. OP I would go with a single sub in a 6-7 cube box, I think you will like how it sounds a lot more. A box that small must have no low end and is probably very peaky..

A box that small must have no low end and is probably very peaky..I thought maybe that is what he meant but then said he wanted 200in^2 for 1 18.What I was getting at was if that was really the port area then he could possibly use the box he has and redo the port.
September 24, 201212 yr I would do 6-7cubes with around 100sq in of port for one 18. You current box is all jacked up.
September 26, 201212 yr Author lol yup 180inchs for two 18's...9cubes tuned at 40hz its a mess. Edited September 26, 201212 yr by Dictator
September 26, 201212 yr Author Rebuilding box keep yall informed. Double think mdf all around 35hz tuned with 180inchs of port area for one 18 seeing 6.24 net volume after sub displacement and port.
September 28, 201212 yr Author ok little late but still a photo lol..worst box i ever made it was a jap slap project not any effort involved on this ugly suckaUploaded with ImageShack.us Edited September 28, 201212 yr by Dictator
