Recommended box
For a sedan, one sub, 1,000 W. It’s the same math as the designer’s step-by-step mode, where you can fit the box to your space, vehicle and amp and get plans, a cut sheet and DXF.
Sealed
smaller, tighter| Bass character (Qtc) | Flat and accurate · 0.65 |
|---|---|
| Fc | 47 Hz |
| F3 (−3 dB, no cabin gain) | 54 Hz |

Ported

| Port | 2 round ports Ø2 1/2″, 14 3/8″ long |
| Port velocity at 1,000 W | 190 ft/s |
| F3 (−3 dB, no cabin gain) | 39 Hz |
| Example box (outside) | 15 7/16″ × 15 3/4″ × 9 7/16″ |
At 1,000 W this example’s port will be noisy: air speed 190 ft/s, while the limit is 82 ft/s. It stays quiet up to about 180 W. Full power needs a port of at least 23.1 in², which means a bigger box than this example — size it in the designer.
