How do i find a box?
I am looking for a ported box for my new sub but i am having a really hard time finding one. I need 1.8 cft at 32Hz. I found a few 1.8 cft ported boxes on ebay but there is no say about Hz?
Here is one of them:

I'd appreciate it if someone could help me find a proper box.

Are you looking for one/two subs. I say you should just make one. Easier than you think. But if you don't feel comfortable doing that, I'm sure someone in your area would be able to do it. Those are pretty specific numbers and I don't know if there are going to be any mass produced boxes with them. Good luck.

</TD></TR></TABLE> As donaldduck_69 said it will be hard to find the proper "premade" ported box, [unless made, or had made by the speaker manufacturer] most premade ported box's come without the ports installed, so they can be cut to the right length, although for the best results build your own or have it built, you will end up with a better box.

Depending on the box construction it might be worth it. When you add a port and your speaker you reduce volume (Space). So if your box has a volume of 1.8 CF unloaded then it will have less with the speaker and port installed. Refer to you speaker paperwork to see if this will matter. The speaker paper work will also list port diameter and length to tune a 1.8 cf box to 34 hz.

you can also make the box volume "smaller" by adding bracing to the inside of the box, I have also just glued in blocks of MDF to "use up" volume so I end up with the proper "net volume".
That said, I still think your better off building a box, it will cost more, but you will have a better box.
