Triticum Agricolam Posted November 7, 2013 Report Posted November 7, 2013 is there a downside to giving subs more port area than they need? as long as the tuning works out? if i were to rebuild the box to try to suit the differences of drivers I'm curious to hear other people's input on this, but there is no performance downside that I know of. The only downside is it makes for a bigger box. "Nothing prevents people from knowing the truth more than the belief they already know it.""Making bass is easy, making music is the hard part."Builds:
Brandonbkd Posted November 7, 2013 Report Posted November 7, 2013 You can get by with 6 cubes and 100 sq/in of port for 2 of hdc315s.

dreuosborn Posted November 7, 2013 Author Report Posted November 7, 2013 does "getting by" mean stress on the woofers? loss of efficiency? weird characteristics? If i can i would like the new box to be better, stronger, tuned lower and with more port area. better in every conceivable way
