Hey guys,
My goal is to get better sounding bass because it does not sound too good right now or at least I nlow it can sound better. Here is what I got. In a 92 2dr Blazer 2 15" L7's in one chamber of approx 8.2 cubes. Subs are facing up and ports are facing back. In this box I currently have 4 4" precision ports. I think my problem is with the ports, they do not add up to be the right diameter size for the subs but I am not for sure. What I do know is that kicker recommends a 6" port for each 15" L7. The reason I did not use 6" ports is because they are not as easy to find.

What? 4 4-in ports is roughly = 2 6-in ports.

 - That was nothing. But, that's how it always begins . . . very small.

If you didn't trim the port lenths at all they should be good, roughly 30 Hz tuning. How much bracing is in the box? If it is flexing too much that could be giving you issues.
