Just a quick question about sonosubs, if I am to build one, it is basically a ported sub except after modelling in winisd for the volume, I need to calculate it based on a cylinder instead of a rectangle correct?

yes.

Search will yield lots of good info, like this:

Need help building Sonotube Subwoofer

Probably the one big concern on sonotube subs, is to make sure that your driver can -- over a long period of time -- be down firing without sagging.

There are however, people that have made transmission lines, tapped horns, wave cannon's and other kinds of alignments with sonotube, ported is not the only option.

I'm using a older MTX black gold sub.. they're meant for car installation, I think it should be alright...
