I am building a subwoofer for my HT, using the original 12" SVS sub driver that I aquired from Patrick Sun. I also am using the Parts Express plate amp.
I am currently building my box, I have all the pieces cut and 3 of them glued together. I haven't attached the piece that holds the amp or the piece that holds the sub and the port.
I have calculated that the volume of the inside of teh box is roughly: 4 cu ft, before I add the sub and the amp. Lets say I lose .3 cu feet. So I will have about 3.7 left, and if I stuff it with polyfill that number will be right around 4 again? Correct assumption??
Next question is about my port. If I remember correctly: I think I would need a 4" port with a length of abouth 22" for that size box to tune it to around 18hz???
Question three: If I installed a 6" port, how long would it have to be to tune it to around 18hz??
Last question,(for now anyway): If I left the box sealed, approximately where would my -3db point be??
Thanks a lot
