Removable Port Calculations?


Recommended Posts

i believe sometime in march im gonna be workin on a new system. 2 15" Fi Bl's in a 7 cube box in the trunk of a civic.

i wanted to make it musical and really nail the lows but i also didnt want to limit him to just music. so my question is how do i calculate wut size each port needs to be. or really just tell me everything there is to know about these ports

first off, are u able to calculate tuning and port displacement?

if you can then it shouldnt be a problem...

its just a matter of knowing the volume of ur enclosure after sub displacment. then just figure up the size of the port u want and subtract its displacement from the volume and find the tuning.....just do that for each port...not much different than any normal tuning...there is just no end correction most the time since swappable ports usually dont use a box wall as part of the port wall....

i likes me some audio stuff...

like a slot port for instance...more often than not a slot port is on one side or the other of the enclosure and uses a box wall as a port wall, whereas a actual square port for example...like meade's...has four sides to it and doesnt use a box wall as part of the port, therefore there is no end correction calculation...make sense?

ok i get it.

can u test my calc with ur calc to see if its correct?

7.5 cubic foot box

30hz= 18h x 5w x 28.1d

40hz= 18h x 5w x 12.38d

are those right?
