I'm trying to re-purpose some spares to make a portable 2.1 system for outdoor use. It's only for barbecues so there's no desire to impact the Richter scale.
The cabinet is constructed of 15mm MDF and measures 360mm (W) x 245mm (H) x 245mm (D). (15l).
Each of the side aspects contains a 6.5" driver: Fs 40Hz, Q 0.5 Xmax 6mm.
The front elevation hosts two cylindrical ports 40mm in diameter and 125mm deep (flared both ends).
Sealed inside the cabinet is a Dell 19.5v (65w) PSU and a TPA3116D2 amplifier.
Before I start screwing and gluing . . . is there anything that needs to be tweaked?

not sure what the question is
1.) Is this a box you are planning to build, or is it already existing (and you are trying to repurpose it)?
2.) You mentioned 2.1, but then only described 2 drivers; is there going to be a subwoofer driver (.1) or just the two 6.5"s playing full range?
3.) Are you asking for someone to model your enclosure with these drivers and see how they are projected to perform? If so, more information is needed on the drivers; need make and model or the rest of the T/S specs.
4.) All of this is like asking "how long is a piece of string?" until you define your goals 🙂 How low, in hz, does it need to play, and how loud? If you don't know, please give examples as best as you can describe. Genre of music is a good start for the first question. Necessary volume can be hard to pin down; for example do you want to have to raise your voice to have a conversation while listening to it? How far away?
