Joe X Posted June 12, 2012 Report Posted June 12, 2012 You need to measure the port length from the external end to the internal end along the center line and measure the cross sectional area (width and height) with that information you can then get the tuning frequency. Wait what...? The dimensions i gave are pretty much all you need because they are the same height as the box. From the figure you can know the cross-sectional area dimensions but not the length of the port, if it turns you need to measure along the center line (half the width) from the external end to the internal.

"The port is just a 13" wall on either side, then there's a 4" extension that goes in like on any normal box." It is just a normal port that goes back, then in. 13" back, then the little extensions on either side are 4". Just like in the picture. Quote
