It's not to scale but I have to make the port as long as possible in the "L" shape, because I can't fit a straight one. It also needs to fire out the back, centered. This box has been nothing but a pain in the @ss... |

I don't know exactly what freq. yet but I'll figure that out when I get some dimensions. My subs fire up. And how would you downfire a port? Doesn't it need at least 6" open space? |

Silver Member Username: Livin_loudNy Post Number: 296 Registered: Jan-06 | Tuning is first based off the size of your box (cu ft). Then comes the size of your port (length, width, height). The size of the box along with the three dimensions determines what the port is tuned to. A calculator makes it easy by inputting the box size and desired tuning freq., and it will give you the required dimensions to make your port. |
