I have two Eclipse SW9122 subs, and I'm looking at getting some ported/vented boxes made. Can anyone point me to a tutorial? I'm sure you guys are tired of answering stupid questions... LOL. I need to learn how to figure sizes for cubic feet and port volume so I can tune it. Thanks.

www.diysubwoofers.org is one of the best places to start.  Relax and read through as much as you can.

kd, i asked that same question too.  Don't give up.  Successfully building your first sub enclosure is one of the most rewarding  things you'll ever do.
Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.

IF you want to qatempt building your own enclosure there are plenty of tutorials for actual contruction.  Designing the enclosure yourself is a great learning experience and you can use a free downloadable program, WinISD, to help tune by calculating port length.  It isn't necessarily perfect like the exepnsive programs out there.  But I have a lot of success using it.  Good Luck.

I recomend if you want to learn about enclosure design and construction, you should read and learn as much of the link titled "Theile-Small" on the left side of this site.  It will explain most of the terms you are likely to run across.
