Want to scale box plans from a 15" to a 10 inch.. my thought process is...
15/10 = 1.5--> 1.5^-1 = .6667
(Random Numbers)
48x24x12 --> 32x16x8
Any thoughts?

Yup. It doesn't work that way. Box volume is determined by a set of parameters know as Theil/Small. It may sound strange but you can have a 10" woofer, that for optimum performance, requires a larger volume than a 15".
Nope, not kidding. 🙂
Yeah I know about those but I was just hopeing it would be that easy. I just havent been able to find paramaters for folded howns or TL boxes. I know that the horn should get bigger at the mouth but should it be 20"s big or 100"s? And should it go from 20 to 100 in 3 bends or 20?

Which one and why are you not starting from scratch? Or is that what you mean by scaling back. If you are looking for a back loaded horn, my first thought would be to hire Scottmoose to design you a box. Keep in mind you might be best off using a Tapped Horn, not either of the ones you have shown. TH's are the best bang for the buck in today's design circles.
I've built the housewrecker per spec and its amazing, deep clean bass that fills the house. but I wanted something smaller for my room or even my car, cant fit a 48" speaker in a hatch or my sedan.
And I like TL speakers but as i mentioned, I have no idea where to start. I dont mind paying someone for speaker plans but I'd like to get some outlines on how to design them so I can make some of my own.

Danny, even with the appropriate math to scale down Steve's big-a$$ Imperial Horn, you wouldn't have the room to fit the
OK, I think this was really just a cheap photoshop prank, but with Steve, one never knows - IIRC this was Bindi - very flexible - although DeVon probably had something to say about the dress code
