the manual just doesnt seem right to me for the box

this is what I was told.....

the 10's have about the same box specs. anything .5-.7 will make them bang.

and thats sealed....

was told they work better in sealed...

your telling me to go sealed? in .5-.7 a piece?
let me restate my situation.
i know for a FACT ported is louder... and they currently bang pretty good what i have them in(ported)... but it doesnt make sense to me with the specifications. i was looking for people that have gone away from the ported specs and tried a bigger box.

yeah, i havnt tried porting the 10's before and the specs in the manual for the reccomeded box seem way off.

anyone have winisd or bassbox that can try and build a ported box for the 10 that makes more sense?

sorry team...i let ya down

sweet

Post by **Bfowler** » Sun Feb 28, 2010 10:58 pm

ok....vote....

A: build one to pg's manual sq spec and see if its indeed fucked...

B: plug the T/S's into bass box pro 6.0 and see what it recommends and build that one and test...and report back

maybe....or maybe they have better software and their box design is actually amazing and we are fools for doubting them. so smart that even bass box pro is inferior...

damn you have to make this tough

Post by **Bfowler** » Sun Feb 28, 2010 11:42 pm

so...as i'm playing with bass box i am discovering why their specs seem odd...

bass box recommends a port thats a 3.9 x 3.9 square and a length of....wait for it...67.75 inches....

VIP3R · Post by **VIP3R** » Sun Feb 28, 2010 11:44 pm

wth? so that means what? haha.

Post by **Bfowler** » Sun Feb 28, 2010 11:47 pm

well thats why pg's port is 1.5 in diameter....to drop the length down to a more reasonable 7.5 length.

VIP3R · Post by **VIP3R** » Sun Feb 28, 2010 11:49 pm

gotcha.
what is it recommending for box volume?

Post by **Bfowler** » Sun Feb 28, 2010 11:52 pm

.87cf

of course, the box would have to be way bigger to add a 67inch long port IN the box and still have .87 left over

VIP3R · Post by **VIP3R** » Sun Feb 28, 2010 11:52 pm

is that for ported im assuming?
