port firing into strut tower, bad?
im wondering are there disadvantages to having the port on the side of the box? the port would be a inch or 2 away from the rear strut tower....
im trying to come up with a box design for my 15s and i can only go 34" wide so im left with 2.25"(wide) port that i could fit on the front of the box but its to small and making my tuning below 25 |
Seen one of Yuli's designs port firing right up close to the strut towers. Likely a lil more than 2" though. Maybe 3 -5"... :dunno:

Loads???
I think a 2" gap between the port in your car is far to small though |
interesting, well i guess ill do a side port and see how it works out

have you considered aero ports?
and what are your other dimensions you can use? 34widex__heightx__long? |
dont tink aero ports will work on the front of the box with hte subs, i looked into them before and the ones i looked at where 6.5"s wide
34x15.5x23 i have more info in this thread below, http://www.canadiancaraudio.com/onli...ggestions.html |
have you seen my design for duel 15's in a trunk? lol!! ;)
http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q...Untitled-6.jpg wait you only have 5.66 net before sub and port displacement? so 5.2cubic after sub displacement then you have to factor in port displacement. so you will you be starving these subs for air (space)??? |
o wow you do have tiny trunk lol! maybe you should have went with 12's?

the RFs? 15s, 4" ID port(forget the length)
i find upfiring in a trunk sucks lol but ive never tried ported upfiring before |
or how about subs firing up and port firing into the cabin!! ?
|
2-4inch ports? interesting i don't see a flare on those lol!! but for 2-4's wouldn't you use those for 2-12's? or would you need more port area? i could be wrong
|
seats dont fold down
ya no flare, ghetto PVC piping lol i went with what the RF manual said |
lol ghetto fab!! ftw lol!! maybe step down to 2-12's would be a better fit?
|
ya a couple people think i could be louder with 1 15 instead of 2 in a small box, im gonna see if i can get a box through the rear seats(gotta remove them), i might have to trim some metal but if it works i could probably do 34x15.5x35 which would be 8.8cubes

34x15.5x35 NICE
if you can get those sizes you can use my box design!! and while you are at it if you can get that much cubic you might as well toss some nice subs in there that will pound!! like Fi or sundown (a kid on here is selling some i think) |
