I have a friend who built his box wrong he has a slotted port for half of its length it is 2 by 13.5 and for the other half it is 1 by 13.5 could someone explain what this would mean please and thank you also the net volume is 1.6 cubs and the total port length is 21.

If this is for a 12" you would likely get excessive airspeed on the 1x13.5 section, that's a choked port for all practical matters so you will experience loss of output, if you are using a low power 10" sub you most likely experience a tuning difference from what was calculated, Hornresp could be useful to model that.

Makes your boundary layer stupid to predict. Therefore you uninterrupted zone of airflow isn't as large as it could be for the space taken up by the port.

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 narrow section will cause the tuning to be at a lower frequency than predicted. If the box is already built, I would try it. I'm sure it will do something.
