You may want to check out more software, such as iriver plus, Cepstral David or MADRIX, which might be similar to WinISD. It also allows you to calculate few different types of filters. One port goes in the small chamber and the sub and other port go in the larger chamber.

Divide the volume into 2 parts, 1/3rd of the volume and 2/3rds of the volume.

Yes you can, model a regular ported box using 2 ports. Saying they were equivalent to XYZ boxes at ABC cost is hard to justify when. I would like to know how I can use WinISD to model a dual chamber ported box.
#WINISD ABC BOX SOFTWARE#
You can design Closed, Vented and Bandpass boxes with this program. Software like Win ISD or Basebox can give you port sizes for a reasonable. you tell it the box volume, all the speaker thiele parameters, and you tell it. WinISD is a freeware speaker designing tool for Windows OS.
#WINISD ABC BOX PRO#
far as i know, the basic box design programs like WinISD and BassBox Pro dont do. Probably the worst thing about these box types is that the parameters will change as the woofer ages, and that will screw up the alignment. I use a program called WinISD for designing boxes, its great for designing ports. an abc box, from everything ive ever read or built, is a box whoes. I'm not saying that these boxes are hopeless, but they're definitely best suited to those who want to tinker and who are willing to invest a LOT of effort into measurement and tweaking. If your 8 needs 150 liters and you use 30liters you most likely will have to use a lot more power for the same amount of spl in the larger cabinet.

Put all of that together, and even a vented box is easy to mess up, but when you have *two* vents at different frequencies and opposite phase, now you're REALLY asking for trouble. If you can provide more info on your woofer I can run calcs thru WinISD and provide box size, port diameter and length. In this video I go through the process of designing a speaker enclosure using free box simulator called WinISDI talk about design methodologies, as well as h. With DSP you can manipulate the 8' drivers to behave per your design goals. They're SO EASY to screw up.Ģ) The reason that any type of vented box is easy to screw up is because there's a complex relationship between the tuning frequency of the box, the length of the port, the diameter of the port, how well sealed the box is, how rigid the walls are, and how accurate the specs of the sub are. 1) I've built around a hundred sub boxes and nothing frightens me more than dual reflex bandpass.
