Heh.... Ryan posted a picture of my box!
Anyways, I might be talking to ryan or bill here soon on designing me another box. I'd like to get even more out of this sub, and my new car(00 Bonneville) will be a nice vehicle to do it in. I can sacrifice SQ a bit.

Im thinking 1.5cuft net/2.0cuft gross @ 35hz or so.
I listen to mostly rap and rock and dance and i know alot of rock doesnt drop below 40hz so im not sure about whats the best freq to tune this box for.
Again this is a SQL system for daily for the three types of music i listed.
Im willing to work with you ryan or anyone who can help.

Disregard my pm on my recommended size, the size box you have figured out should be cool, since you are shooting for sql.

His box was designed around a daily driver, with potential to get a bit louder than normal.
I dont have his box calculations saved, but its wrote on the inside of the box.
I believe it was 1.75 cubes tuned to 34 Hz. The port was 3" wide I believe and 13-14" tall...

thick heavy bass = bigger box
deeper bass = lower tuned frequency
louder, but accurate = smaller box, higher tuned frequency
pure spl = smaller box, very high frequency (~46 Hz)
Im looking for louder but accurate. I dont like sloppy bass that misses notes. I whould like to feel the kick drums in rock and feel the rap bass notes with authority and feel the punch in the chest. Im not so crazy about deep bass such as 30hz and lower.
Im thinking 1.5-1.75 net @ 34-36hz

those are general but the spl one is incorrect
