What do you guys recommend for volume and port area?

the manual just doesnt seem right to me for the box

yes i am aware of the manual..

i was asking any other opinions that go AGAINST the manual..

it just doesnt seem right

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.

i know i know , but i had the same question in that post i put up there, im just tell'n ya what they sead to me...

its very interesting for sure

wait for BFowler - hopefully he will see and respond, he is the RSDC source of truth.

i already talked to him via pm! he wasnt sure!:(

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

id appreciate that if someone could help with winisd

Oh MAN!

Well, damn... sounds to me like we need a test subject, test vehicle and a weekend to get some info!

Sorry Vip3r - just saw this post after i replied to your PM

no worries. just would like some help

maybe....i will build one this week and try it!

sweet

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

wow.. kind of a hard one...

but wouldn't option be still say that Option A is fucked?

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

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....

wth? so that means what? haha.

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

gotcha.
what is it recommending for box volume?

.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

is that for ported im assuming?
