| tough call.. its not going to be like 5db betwee the two. so unless you plan on being on a national level and need .5 to win finals its not going to be a huge deal.. is personally say the 4inch if you were doing legal id say 6inch.. but i dont think you will need 3 6inch either way.. two would be plenty | |

| Just build one box with a removable port baffle and test every port area and length you can. If I had to guess though 3 or 4-4" or 2-6" will be the best. | |

| aero ports may not be in your budget but go to home depot an get a 8ft stick of pvc 4in for like 15 bucks i think myne was not sure. the six inch i saw a guy had some at a plumbing supply for like 3.50 a foot. with 4 10's i think 4 4'in areo would work better. i know 1 6in in my trunk did okay but alan also told me that 2 6's would have been better. | |

| i was wondering if i was using too much port and thinking of doing 2 6's or 3 4's or 4 but hell i can get 4 4"'s for less then 2 6" ports so the 4 inch is prolly where im heading and dont think they will be doin enough for finals just seein how loud i can get it before the end of the year prolly gonna switch subs at end of year! thanks guys!! might just have to go to home depot and pick up some pvc to play with!! | |
