Hello folks,
This is the first time that I am building a Bass Reflex type enclosure with the new FR8C driver. The driver has a Fs=45Hz and I was advised to use an 80 liter box with two 3"(diameter) ports with 5" to 6" length. The enclosure will be 32"L*14"B*11"W to give me about 80L enclosure volume. Do you thing this would be a good design? I think i will only use the full range driver and may later add a tweeter if I deem necessary.
Also, what is the general mathematical expression that relate enclosure dimensions to the tuning frequency? The thing is that I have to write a report for a college independent study so some general mathematical descriptions would be good. Alternately is there a good website that explains in detail the workings of a BR box w/ equations?
I want to engage myself in a systematized and disciplined study of Loudspeaker Design and I am new to all of this so any help would be appreciated. Thank you folks.

That should work. My first boxes for the first version of the FR8's were similar.
