Well I'm looking to replace my subs and while I'm doing this I'm going to build a new sub box and plan on making a pretty nice one this time around. What I'd like to do is build a box thats ported and then take some kind of flat board and put it across the whole front to take up all the edges around the box to the car. That way it looks clean and sealed. It will look kind of like this:



Now I had a sealed box before but this I'm I'd like to go with a ported box instead. I don't quite understand how to tune the box to my liking though and am having a hard time with how long the port length should be and everything. I've done the calculations and such and they all seem to come out around the same but I still don't understand what I'm doing. My design plan was to use a slot style port in the middle of the 2 subs. I wanted the box to be about 2 feet cub for each sub. Can anyone give me a hand with how to handle this. I don't understand what frequency to tune to and such. I listen to all sorts of music.

i've been using this site: Subwoofer Enclosure Calculators, Fraction to Decimal, Parallel, Series, Port Length and Volume Calculators to do the calculations and gather most of my info from.
