Aero Port Bends

on my volvo box I used two of these short 90s in it.

roughly 30 inches long each port. shit load of port area for a 4ish cube single 15 box. It did a 146.6 on 900w clamped. I guess it didn't affect it too much cause imo it was a pretty bitchin trunk setup. Bet the long sweep would have been more efficient though.

I wonder how many bends in a single aero port can you do before it causes issues?

Anyone know, does it even matter?

If you use long sweeps like this:

There probably is very little, if any, detrimental effects. Fitting those long sweeps in your box might be a bit of a challenge though.

i thought about sweeps. Im looking at what port area i want and its gonna suck, cause getting enough area and still tuning low is a pita. Even with a slot port. I may jst rundown to home depot and test fit a few pieces and measure them assembled to see what i will be looking at.

I would not bend more than once. Even a single bend is going to affect SPL a bit. Is it not possible to mount the port partially internally/externally?

Those elbows are expensive !

You'd better use a slot port, if you need any angle in the port, IMO.
