7.2 cube b4 displacement, 51hz port tune.


this is for 4 eD 12.14k's w/ a tsunami 1100D. to be placed in the back of a 98 GMC Jimmy.

i will have the ports probably be 2.5" pvc, at 4"s each, will have 8 of them coming from the front flat area. this will allow me to also put 90's on them and connect them to seal them off when i am daily driving.

do you have any reccomendations for this box?

it is 7.4 cubes according to my math, then if i subtract out some bracing, and the displacement of the subs, i hope to hit 7.0cubes.

how does this box look?

Eight 2.5" diameter ports? You don't have enough port area.

Consider two 6" diameter vents minimum, 8" diameter would be better.

Or just make a slot port of somewhere in the 120-150sq inch area and have a cover plate for it.

Use a single slot port. Multiple ports are harder to tune, plus they are harder to build. You can have a good looking design with a single port as well, and save frustration.
