June 26, 200718 yr Author What functionality will be using these for? Home, car, how deep do you need them to extend?what is the volume i should port these at, and to what frequency for car usage?but i dont know i just want some extra mid-bass out of them. probably tune them to 60-70hz or so. lmk if theres anything wrong in that tuning for my application.
June 26, 200718 yr Good luck. Jason made GIGANTIC door buildouts, HUGE... they came out to .54cubesHe tried using a flared 1.5port, all the way up to a 2.5 I believe... and he got noise...Supposedly. I always thought it was just because of the tones he was playing...Anyways. Mine are sealed in ~.2cubes... and I cross them @40hz... active... and they sound great...nG
June 27, 200718 yr Don't be afraid to use a lower crossover point. Especially if you have a 3rd or 4th order slope. I have mine at 50hz and I really like it, but that is totally up to the listener.
June 27, 200718 yr Author yeah noah-i have the same size as you i guess ill go seald Don't be afraid to use a lower crossover point. Especially if you have a 3rd or 4th order slope.

June 27, 200718 yr Author I'll repeat, IB is your friend.i dont know how i can do IB....my doors aren't set up like normal doors, they have no speaker holes in them.

It isn't like you need that big of a hole, you just need to vent the backwave effectively out of the door so it can't intermingle with the front wave. It will sound WAY better than if you port or seal it on your first shot. My guesstimation would be that you are going to need to build your setup three or four times to come anywhere near the response as one attempt running IB. It will really be a far superior way to mount that driver in your car doors. Way easier on the build as well.
