Need Help With Port Length


EraOfDiscovery

Recommended Posts

Well, here I am again up at 1 AM, this time on Christmas, about to lose my mind trying to design a box for my (2) SA-18's. I've got all the measurements entered into Torres (will list below) and have got the cubic footage and tuning I want, now my problem is trying to design this box on Google SketchUp, i know the port length is the measure down the center of the port and the physical port length is the measure of the actual wood used, but i can seem to transfer these numbers over too my design without it making me want to blow my head off. If I use the physical port length, the actual port length isn't right. If I use the actual port length, the port doesn't bend like it says it should. I don't know what measurements to use. If someone could just toss this box together on Google SketchUp and post a screenshot with the measurements shown, that would be SO helpful. Thanks, and Happy Holidays. -EraOfDiscovery

If you want to keep your 8" wide port, just make your physical port piece 17.75". Makes for a bit lower, 31.5hz, tuning, but makes it easy.

You have the double baffle- 1.5"

Physical port piece - 17.75"

90 degree of the port - 8"

Port piece thickness - .75"

Id go with a little less port width, but what's above will work.
