I don't really see anything that wrong with the box. Its fairly well constructed and the port really isnt that bad if the math was done correctly. The 3 subs and the price are pretty LOL

but how in the world could that possibly be tuned right with the three ports connecting to a single port?, not to mention a huge lack of port area

how can you tell the necessary amount of port area by looking at it? Did he post specs of the port sizes?

Its definitely not the best design but its worlds above 90% of shit i see.

Coming from SMD doesn't surprise me.

If it was a shared chamber box it would work fine.

The way its currently setup the only real problem is the port size difference between the ports in each box and the output port. However with the port being so long it probably controls the sub. I bet with 3 decent subs it would sound half decent. Its a type of series tuned sixth order reverse sixth order in the end. Who knows maybe this guy discovered a new box type or a new port scheme. This reminds me of "DONT EVER PORT OUT THE BACK BEHIND THE SUB IT WILL BLOW YOUR SHIT" When a lot of home theater enclosures use rear porting and the loudest boxes in the world are all reported. People looked at the guys who started the rear porting fad like they were dumbasses until they blew them out of the water with there scores.

To many people are afraid to think out of the "box" anymore for fear they will get ridiculed. i caught tons of shit for that box that was in mookies jeep but that thing sounded great and played low as hell not to mention was half decently loud. I guess i should post myself up on SMD for the Fail of the week.

the last single 10 i did was ported to the rear ive had some guy on caco say it would suck and my sub would unload destroy the sub blah blah blah. it sounded pretty damn good to me and everyone else who road in the car and never damaged the sub.
the price is way high on that box
smd sucks
but its the only forum ive found with people from alaska on it other than the fiberglassers forum so i check in every now and then to find out about shows or anything
