New member Username: WolfofozCHANDLER, AZ US Post Number: 2 Registered: May-04 | Thanks I looked at that site. It seems a 3" port 40.87" long(not possible due to the fact the box is not that long) or 2" port 9.5" long is what it's calling for.I heard someone say that it's not good to use smaller the a 3" port. Any thoughts on 2" vs 3". |
Silver Member Username: VipersbymsPost Number: 139 Registered: Apr-04 | im not sure what you put in for the tuning frequency, but it shouldnt be 40.87" long. tuned to 30hz, it would be like a 17" long port. |
