I screwed up ..

Post by dmeyer07 »

Ight guys i fukd up.. i got my calculations wrong somehow and ended up building a slot port tuned to 57 hertz not 38 like i wanted.... There really is no possible way for me to fix this problem now... unless i rip it all apart, or could i simple put a piece of wood over 6 inchs of the opening to make it to a port tuned for 38 hertz?

sorry thats so confusing
thanks for the help

and also how bad will this sound?

I'm putitng my old alpine type r 12" in there

well if your going for SPL it may not be that bad but if its your daily driver i would say fix it. you can simply add a slide port to the one you got.

you could extend the port on the exterior. That'll do it.
