Multiple Subs in 1 ported enclosure ?
So if 1 ported sub uses 1.0 cf air space & a 2" x 6" port, can I build a 2.0 cf box with 2 2"x6" ports and use 2 subs?
If not, how do I figure this out??

Re: Multiple Subs in 1 ported enclosure ?
I'm trying to build a ported enclosure for 4 8" subs.
Have you seen the shape of a 3rd gen trunk? the bottom well is off to one side, using an angle and going forward I can probably get enough air space (.7 each sub) and the ports, but making 4 equal cf chambers... would be rather difficult...
I can still brace the box inside....

Re: Multiple Subs in 1 ported enclosure ?
The only things I've seen concerning sharing air space are the rigidity of the box (which can be braced) & the other is "what if 1 woofer fails, the other('s) will soon fail too...."
Any other concerns?

Re: Multiple Subs in 1 ported enclosure ?
Download Win ISD and it will work it out for you. The calculations aren't really that simple when you put 2 subs in 1 space. I've made several boxes like this using win ISD and have never been dissapointed.
