Eclipsebooom Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 wats the difference between a slot port and a square port cant seem to find the answer anywhere Quote Alpine CDA-9886 2x DC lvl4 15s SoundStream PCA2000D 6 cubic feet tuned 32hz Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.

IH8PunkRok Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 a slot port uses a wall of the box as one (or more) port walls and requires a correction in the calculation a square port uses none of the box walls. (i.e. has 4 pieces of wood to make the port) Quote -Matt2005 Dodge Magnum RTJVC KD-AVX1 2 PPI S580.2 Obsidian Audio ST1 Horn Tweeters PRV 8MB450s Audio Legion 3500.1D 2 RE MT 18s 360 ah LiFePO4 BatterySHCA 2/0 155.2 @ 29 hzKicker CVR 15's buildDD 3512e buildMini T-Line Build(6) 8s BuildNightshade 15s Wall BuildMagnum AB XFL 12s BuildNewest Magnum Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricR Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 the shape and about 2db. 2db meaning the square port? Quote i was thinking leave the 12 sitting in the box in the hole and duck tape from the bottom of the sub to the bottom of the baffle so the sub doesnt free air. would that work?

ISO Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 I would like some info on this question too. I threw a box together one day that wanted a 4 inch diameter port,so I picked a corner of the box and did a square port somewhere around 3.75x3.75x the length and it pounded but I had port niose bigger than shit. So there is something I'm not getting with a square port unless you can't use one of the corners for 2 of the walls of the port.
