Fourth-Order Bandpass Subwoofer Enclosure Design Calculator

 This calculator will design a bandpass subwoofer enclosure to achieve a specific amount of gain (in dB). If you don't understand what this means, click here for help.
Calculate Your Enclosure Here
 This Javascript is designed to calculate a bandpass enclosure with any amount of gain that you desire. If the F3L is too high, try a higher S factor. If this still gives you a F3L that is too high, you will have to reduce the amount of gain you are asking for, or use a different speaker.

Note : Too much gain can be hazardous to your speakers, try to keep it +3 dB or less unless you want to find out what your speakers look like with holes in them.

When you are finished, write down your enclosure specifications, (or copy & paste them), and go here to design the port(s) for your front chamber.
