That port is so tiny, it looks like you just made a cut too short and used it anyway.

plus you need to pre drill screw holes. and your wood isnt even straight.

I do predrill them, I just rushed it with a quick cut blade.

its a 25W RMS sub... not worth a 4+ hour box....

why even build a box for it?

 

[Ku-sama]

cause he has no sub, and he is on crappy coaxials, so I'm amping his system and giving him some bass he doesn't have...

he has no carpet in his truck, no sound deadening, not even factory sound deadening.... besides, he can pay for quality, if he wants free ****, then he gets ****

don't say anything about wasting money or anything.... he's the kind of guy with his **** at 45 of 50 and sounding like crap..... I'm trying to get him to come over to the light side of Sq

wtf, i think it needs a little more port area... maybe.

.5" wide?

1" wide for a 6.5" speaker will even have port noise
