I'm designing a ported box for a UXL-18 and would appreciate a little help. I'm aiming for a large box (at least 12CF net) with a slot port, tuned to 15Hz. I am modeling with 2,000 watts.
What 1st port resonance am I aiming for? My current design has a port of 2.0" x 22.50" @ 39.2 inches long showing a 1st PR of 172Hz. I have no idea if this is great or it stinks.
I have noticed that the higher I go with the port height, the lower the resonance drops. About the only thing I do know is that you don't want a 1st PR within an octave of the highest freq you expect the box to play...at least I think I'm remembering that correctly...
Would appreciate a little direction. Thanks.
