Port Area per Foot


Krakin

Recommended Posts

as far as port area per foot you should really be looking for at least 12-14 as a general rule

Thanks I was pretty excited about the alt myself. kind of like a school girl, in a dress, on a swing. lol

Thank you, I've just never seen anything quite definitive on it.

Krakin, are you some sort of mad scientist?

I would have replied earlier, but I was measuring the output of my amp with a yardstick . . .

What you hear is not the air pressure variation in itself

but what has drawn your attention

in the two streams of superimposed air pressure variations at your eardrums

An acoustic event has dimensions of Time, Tone, Loudness and Space

Everyone learns to render the 3-dimensional localization of sound based on the individual shape of their ears,

thus no formula can achieve a definite effect for every listener.

the 2 4"s or 1 6" would be fine...you don't need 12-14 inches for aeros

12-20 for standard ports...16 is a good target

8-12 for aeroports....more the better

So is that a general rule for all size subs and amps for daily?

Yes, for aeros 9-13 /cube is the range.

oh. lol this is news to me I've been designing aeros all this time with between 12 and 18 depending on the subs

No really a big deal as far as performance goes, just a bit bigger box than needed and the cost of the aeros.

Aeros are expensive.....and more efficient than regular ports, where a slot port might by 16-18inches of port you can get similar results with 12inches of port with aeros

good to know. so.. exactly what is the apeal of using a slot port then? lol they're less efficient... from what I've seen of them when I've been playing with Torres and testing slot ports and aero ports, you need more port from slot to get the same port per foot... and you need more port per foot with that than an aero... so is cost the only appeal of slot port over aero port?
