So I decided to change it up and stop waiting on the new Q's even though with my luck they will be on the website tomorrow lol. But I ordered my Fi SSD today, and was just wondering about Kerf ports vs regular ports and any other ideas some people could give me.
Kerfed ports increase air flow efficiency in the port but are mainly used for looks since there is no major audible difference. If done right it can be a couple tenths louder on the TL but still, that's not noticeable.
Yes I am looking for ideas, ill be putting this into a 98 passat. We did figure out that i could fit a 15" so just trying to get some good box options going through my head so I can finish that before the SSD arrives
Alright, i was just wondering about kerf becuase a buddy of mine said it would make it "louder" and would beable to get the "most" out of my woof.
I kinda want to try a kerfed port T-line box for an 8 just so i can say i did it lol. i think that would be pretty cool.
but to stay on topic, the only real advantage of a kerf port will be the look ot it. and like dustin said, you might gain a tenth or so. the negatives are that it is harder to do, it takes up a bit more room and its not really worth it, unless you really just want to try out something new.
Well considering this will be my first box... haha it wouldn't really be "something new" a regular slot is "new". For me anyway. But I think considering everyone agrees that it a) doesn't produce thaattt much more, b) way harder, and c) not really worth it lol i will stick with a slot port.
If this is your first time working with wood and constructing an enclosure, I advise not to try a kerfed port unless someone who has experience cutting kerfs is helping you. One little mistake or one cut too deep (on the kerf) cracks the mdf.
i read this yesterday and couldnt figure out what he meant by "alsom" reading it again today i realized that he meant "awesome" im sure everyone already figured that out though
