a 34.1 Hz motor with a 0.57 Qts, 22.5 litres of Vas and 1000 watts, and the wedge gives it 1.54 cubic feet net vented at 37.5 Hz through a 24.7 square inch port. The cabinet is 28.5 inches wide, 15.5 tall, 10.25 inches at the top and 15.89 at the base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eStereo Integrity's own vented box is 1.7 cubic feet at 27 Hz with a 22 inch port, and a straight triangular port in a wedge cannot reach that length, so this cabinet tunes higher: F3 30.9 Hz anechoic on 4.13 dB of ripple and 6.52 dB of in-car spread across 25 to 60 Hz. The port takes 23.39 of the 23.48 inches the width allows and runs at 27.0 metres per second in the channel at the full 1000 watts, over the 24.7 limit this line normally holds, with 17.8 at the rounded mouth against a 17 target. Both figures were reviewed and accepted for this cabinet; at the power most installs run, they fall well inside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eTrunk-load wedge, explained\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-grid\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"df-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThe 20 degree face is the seat side\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA factory rear seat back\n    leans about 20 degrees off vertical. The wedge's raked rear panel matches that lean and tucks\n    against it, so the cabinet uses the triangle of trunk floor a square box wastes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"df-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThe driver fires rearward\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe baffle stays vertical and faces\n    the trunk opening.

The floor and the raked back wall\n  are two of its three sides; the third is a single panel bevelled to sit flush against both.\n  It runs across the cabinet, opens into the box at the far end and exits through the side\n  panel: a straight run with no bend, 23.39 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is an isosceles triangle with 7.25 inch legs, 24.7 square inches, running at\n  27.0 metres per second at the tuning frequency. The mouth is that same triangle cut through\n  the side panel with its three edges rounded over at 1\/2 inch, so the opening at the face is\n  37.4 square inches and air leaves it at 17.8 metres per second, against the 17.0 metre per\n  second threshold where a slot port starts to chuff. The panel's throat end carries a 3\/8 inch\n  roundover for the same reason.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X cabinet\n    we build.

Port velocity is the figure to know on this cabinet: 27.0 in the channel and 17.8 at the mouth at rated power, so run the filter and expect some port noise at full output on sustained low notes. 7.000 inches of mounting depth clears the panel. We also build this driver as a 1.00 cubic foot sealed wedge, inside Stereo Integrity's sealed range, and the graphs tab compares the two.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"df-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eBraced\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo windowed C braces run the cabinet profile at the third points of the width and seat on the port panel; the windows keep the cavity one chamber.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"df-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eJoinery\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eV-groove and dado throughout, 0.75 inch Langboard\n    Elite MDF, the shell folded from one strip with the sides dropped into dados and the port\n    panel seated in dados of its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003ePower, wiring and warranty\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eStereo Integrity rate the SQL-12 at 1000 W RMS.
