here's my question, i have 1 sub and am looking to go with a nice looking, original box, but also going for loud and possible spl!

Now i will be facing the woofer backwards in an SUV. I wanted to make 2 slot ports on both ends of the box with the woofer in the middle! Now is having 2 ports going to effect anything, inseatd of having the woofer on 1 side, and 1 big slot port??

Thumbs up
it might create more turbulence in the box with a little more efficiency which could possibly make it a little louder. it will also look good.

*edit* I think I was wrong there. The ports will be approx the same length. Sorry. *edit*

dual ports are usually used for separate chamber boxes. For SPL do a single port. [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]
