Decaf Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Technically, you measure the ports width starting from the outside corner of the port bend to the inside corner of the box, then draw your perpendicular line from that point equidistant from back wall and port wall... that's the largest 45 you can have, otherwise that would be a constriction point in surface area within the port length. Sometimes it helps, sometimes is doesn't, I tend to add them in the port but not always inside the box Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IKnowImLost224 Posted January 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 What is your basis behind trying 45s Wouldn't a 90 corner constrict the airflow? I figured 45's would be better than nothing. Decaf thank you for the info. That's what I was looking for with this post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n8ball2013 Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 No people put way to much emphasis on airflow and the correlation to output. You said its for daily right? I wouldn't even.bother. its more work same results to the ear. I've also never seen a case where 45s made a positive difference personally.

BEEMDUB Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 I'm not really familiar with fiberglassing and prob wont be doing TL but I want to do whatever I can to improve my builds. get fiberglass resin...pour some into a container, put mekp into it, mix it, pour it into the desired corner with the box on a tilt so that it evens itself out to 45 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't alpine do tests with 45s and without?And he also said their isn't really a "air flow" like most assume.. the site inside the box is just vibrating violently Not pushed out like water and needs direction.Could be wrong but I'm not putting 45s in my wall or in the port... Just rounding corners and fiberglass down rpping vanderbilt. 30 miles from victoria. i own the 3rd loudest setup here out of 3. but i did put together all 3 setups ^^ Cant wait to swalllow Ghost's babies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
