converting old box to new box??

ok I just found an old box I built last year for 2 kicker L5's but I need to know my cb.ft. for it cause I want to try and make it work for something else, but dont know what it is tuned to either heres a couple of pics







the total outside measurements are 35wx15hx24d

the port is 4.25 wide port 1 is 13.5x18.5 port 2 is 13.5x10

I was thinking its tuned to like 28 hz but I need help to figure that out please


I am thinking bout putting a new piece of wood on the front to cover the square holes, and cut a square in the top to put my 15" L7 in it but, I have to fix the port cause im thinking it might not be ok to use? any suggestions, I am gonna build a proper box for the L7 but thought I can modify this one until then, I cant take it apart cause I used PL Premium to glue it together then screwed it haha

You said you build this box ?.. if you built this boxm wouldn't you still have the measurements.. or remember what you tuned it too..

Hmmm.. I say, Judging from the pics (which were helpful), that its prob around hmm 3.2 cubic feet, and hmm, your port is tuned to Hz

bout the comment if I built it I should know it, lol, well lets just say I built it a year and a half ago, maybe around 30 boxes between then and now, and I have a very bad memory, lol, so no I dont know I forgot lol


ok I found out the box is 5.8cb.ft. before the sub and port, so Im guessing it would be tuned around the 28-30 hz range, can anyone correct me or agree with that
