Port Tuning on a 15 Cabinet

someparts · #1 08-03-2011, 01:53 PM

I have a 1x15 project cab that I was thinking of using the Eminence CB15 8 ohm Legend speaker in a ported setup. Question is...what should I tune it to? Interior volume is 3.867ft.

50hz should sound good, tweak by ear from there if you want. You run this through WinISD? That'll show you how the lows change with different tunings.

Whatever the box program you're using says gives the response that you're trying to achieve.

I'm using WinISD for the first time now, so trying to figure it out. The interior of the box is 27.5" x 20.25 x 12. I played with some of the numbers on both the Legend and a EVM 15L I have laying around. I'm guess the box volume is in inches and the ports are fractions of meters...
