traxxas101 Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 I need help determining a traingle port length any help? wedge box size is length 52 height 18.5 width 1= 8 width 2 =12 running 2 12 chaos i think about 0.07ft per sub if u have the box divided or about 0.14 for both together jus calculate the area of your port and it your sum should tell u how long it should be..

AmericanLegend Posted October 21, 2011 Report Share Posted October 21, 2011 Don't make a triangle port. It will have three sharp corners to retard the air. If possible, do a square port or, even better, a circle one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassMunky Posted October 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2011 what would be better a square or circle one? and why? Ill see if it fits both of them.

Your choice, I think... depends on how your box is designed based on where you're mounting it (size considerations) and then which (slotted or round or other) accommodates your sub(s) and your space... have you got a box design? with the c.f. info along with the displacement info of you particular sub(s), etc. you can tune your box port accordingly... if you're just asking aesthetic preference, i've always like round ports... so rlly its you prefrence.. but i like circle ports because theres no edges to restrict or cause port noise... btw... Keep the port(s) as far away from the enclosure sides and back as possible except for the slot type port. Make sure the inside end of a tube or square port is at least the equivalent of one vent diameter away from the back of the box or any bracing materials.Keep the vent free from anything that may affect air flow through it.The port should also be placed as far away from the speaker cone as practical.
