    I wanted to make a ported box for 2 - 12" type Rs and needed a design, nothing too fancy, just a regular double ported box. Preferably with dividers.
    Max dimensions: 18h X 22d X 38w

    Thanks in advance for the help

    If you can post a link to the specs of those speakers that would be helpful.

    I'm gonna be little generic here. For most 12-inch woofers, I like to see 2 to 2.5 cu ft per woofer (you wanna divider), so we need to lose some height.

    Can we drop the height to 14-inches? Also whats the recommended port tuning for this speaker and what type of vehicle is it going into?

    OK, no problem. The port will need to be 12.5-inches tall by 2-inches wide. The port will need to be around 18-inches long. This will get our tuning around 38-40 Hz.

    Now this is for a box with a divider in the middle.

    what do you mean when you say the port will be 18 inches long?

    You got it. Now remember, you will have two of these ports because its a divided box.
