Round speakers = round port, Square speakers = Square port. :peepwall:

Naw, naw. Square speakers = gasoline and a match. :P

A star shaped port is gonna create too much port noise. It sounds like a great idea, but I say don't do it.

Round ports should in theory be the most efficient of all shapes. They have the lowest internal port surface area of any shape you can make. This means that there is less resistance to air flow due to friction against the inside of the port...with that being said, with a well designed and smoothed-out port you probably could not hear the difference between a round port and square or rectangle or something with the same specs otherwise

Port noise was one thing I was concerned with. Sealed boxes are soooo much easier but lacking on output in some cases. In a daily setup dose it matter that much on the inside of the port? What are some ways of making sure to reduce the friction inside of a port.
