That is very possible...Jeff has 6 subs in a small ported box...and steve mead has his subs in a common chamber...I think.

im not saying it isnt possible. just not preferred. you still need lots of bracing and one GIANT port or lots of smaller ones. Much easier in my opinion to make 2 or 3 smaller boxes.

I think it would be sweet to have 3 different ported boxes with 2 subs in each and port each one different. say 32hz, 42, and 50hz

hell, instead of mixing port sizes, why not mix box types? build a box with two chambers.. 3 subs in one box, sealed.. then 3 subs in one box, ported. the 3 sealed subs will be punchier, while the 3 ported ones will be a bit boomier. why not, right?

personally though, i've always preferred a sealed box.. i listen to a lot of alt/rock and the sealed is a bit more responsive.

what are you going to tune the ports to? I hope you arent doing one large box for all 6 subs!

Greetings. At this moment, unless I have good arguement not to,I plan on tuning the ports to 52hz. I have had really nice results that way, and I end up with an "SQL" system that I really enjoy. As far as how many enclosures, it will actually be one big blob, but each sub will be individually chambered and ported within. A nice facade piece or pieces and it should look decent (crossing fingers).
