Calculating port area with xmax?

That is the thing that doesn't make sense, you get into subs that have a xmax of 30mm and your port area and lengths go through the freaking roof.

How can you meet in the middle between the "rule of thumb" 12-16 port area per cube and the xmax calculation? I am starting to think 20 inches of port area per cube is a happy medium at least in terms of the higher xmax subs.

If we can believe Torres calculator it would need to be 68" in length 7net@30Hz with a 185 square inches of port area, the port itself would displace 8-9 cubes. How about that LOL.

Haha, I knew it was going to displace a ton of volume. I never actually did a calculation, I was guessing in the 50s with crude math. That's insane though, if you want that amount of port. I have never realized that they had 40MM of Xmax.

Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.
