do you want diameter or do you need tunning and al that as well.I would not go with less the 4 6" ports tunning would put you at 3.5" long.Or are you looking at slot ports.You just gave use almost nothing to work with but a 14cu box,tune and subs.Are they chambered on there own?

then you need a new box or put a huge plug port in but not easy with 18" high

you need to tune lower than 45hz. it will sound terrible for music.

I was thinking by the tune he was wanting just SPL but yes Yuli is right for music you would want the tune about 32Hz or maybe even a bit lower in around 28Hz for them subs.They get mean and low when tuned right.I always liked the Magmas
