Quick port question.....

Thanks for the reply Paul....ANYONE ELSE?! I'm looking at a difference of a cubic foot here, and as far as I know, you DO subtract the volume of air inside the port. But I'd like to know for sure before I glue and screw. Someone PLEASE?! |

Yeah mine is slot ported, I used bassbox pro to calculate everything and it said the same thing so I'll just go with that assumption I guess |

Post Number: 5426 Registered: Jun-06 | Yeah somehow the way I worded my first post it sounded like I included the port area in my box's overall volume. What I should've said was I took the port's volume into consideration in my overall box volume. It might of been the rum. |
