sorry never used a program before what would i do to show a smaller box to see how the sub would work in it

what i would like to do is find the smallest box sealed that will only be a couple db less than the 2.5cub sealed and still get good output

i modeled the v1 15w0 isobaric and in a 3cuft sealed the f3 is about 36hz and reaches xmax at 22hz with 400w total. just did another one in a 6th order isobaric bandpass with a 2.5cuft rear chamber tuned to 30hz and a 1.5 front chamber tuned to 60hz you have an almost 6db gain from about 40hz to 70hz with a 1.5 db dip around 50hz. this should she plenty loud enough.

www.PWKDESIGNS.COM either buy his plans or have him "Pete" make it. CAD designed with his proprietary software Plans are like 50 bucks. He truly is 1 of the best in the world in enclosure design.

while a box certainly makes a big difference in output its decisions like this that I just like to build a nice sealed box and let my bass cube make any adjustments for what I feel it lacks.
what else can I say I am a grumpy asshole most of the time.

I've heard a 6" sub in a transmission line box hit harder than a ported 10" w3v2, so I think there is some magic involved somewhere. I would like to know what are the popular modeling software out there for us to use.
