Mixing Ports

I can only think of a couple practical uses for this, but is it possible to have a slot port AND and circular port in the same box? my reason for asking is i want to change the tuning of a box i already have made and dont want to rip it apart to make the slot bigger. I can still reinforce the circular port but was just curious if it would work if proper port calculations are combined or would it completely be a bust. I'm more asking about the theory of it working versus an actual individual situation working. Sorry if this is a weird question.

Current Setup:

Factory HU with LOC

mids/highs-Insignia components

Sub- E8 in bass tube

Amp- sae-1200d

Show Setup:

HU-Sony MEX-1HD (brings massive respect for sony)

fronts - Infinity Kappa perfect comps

rears- Infinity Kappa coax

mid/high amp - Autotek 5600

Subs - 2 RE SE 15's

Sub Amps - 2xSAE-1200D

Box - 5cubes sealed

Wire- Lots of Knu 1/0

I dont know if it could be done how your saying it... Just I would cut a piece of wood to cover the opening of the slot port. Then cut out the circle port holes somewhere else on the box.

that would be an option. I have a whole sheet of MDF and will probably just build another box with the new lower tuning but i was still wondering from a hypothetical perspective if it could be done?

anyone have some thoughts as to why this would or wouldn't work?

And besides mixing ports,could you have a port of any shape as long as the dimensions are constant and a calculatable port area? such as a triangle, hexagon, oval?

u can use any shape for the port, while some arent really practical, i think it was in this forum, but i remember a jl logo used as a port
