okay well the wood did not get cuz this saturday because my brother decided to go to orlando... but he wants me to do an angled baffle so the bass bounces off the back glass better and into the cabin... now ive got to ask u about this incase it will ruin everything... we were going to do 2 inches off the bottom and onto the top. this wiull result in the same volume. but the ports will be slightly different as where they meet the baffle they will be angled... i;ll upload some pictures from paint to show u what im talking about....

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- the first picture is the original design from the side... the second is the new design... which ive changed to taking 3 inches off the top and adding 3 inches to the bottom... and the 3rd picture is showing the original port shape to the new angles port shape... the length will still be the same but the front will be angled to match the angle of the baffle... will this cause problems... all u have to do is tell me its a bad idea and the idea is gone... because i dont know too much about how it will affect sound and performance i wanted to ask you... it seems like it will be the same outcome but im not sure... let me know what you think thanks

im not sure I follow what your changes are going to do so all I can say for sure is make sure you have at least 3 inches from the back of the inside of the enclosure to the back of the ports and make sure you have at least three inches from side to side with the interior port from the other ports as for angle why not add the angle to the exsisting demensions you origally had from the top where the subwoofer mounts (in other words angle the sub mount itself with an angled board)
ummm i think what ur saying is what im talking about lol... angling the baffle ... sry i havent been able to log on for days.... my computer wudnt log onto the website idk why.
so the angle wouldnt change anything right as long as the volume is still the same and the ports have room?
