Long skinny slotted port?

If you have trouble tuning to 30hz with a 4” port width and the port length is too long, which is kind of what I’m thinking is gonna happen, then you can decrease the port width as far as 3.25”. If a width of 4” doesn’t work with the calculations then try 3.75” and the 3.625” and then 3.5” and then 3.375” and worse case scenario 3.25”. Each measurement wouldn’t have port noise on that amount of rms on an enclosure tuned to 30hz. But any smaller than 3.25” port width would go below 12 square inches of port area per cubic foot. The formula for square inches per cubic foot on a slot port enclosure are 12” up to 16”. On aero port enclosures, 8” up to 12”. Plus anything smaller than 3.25” in port width could have port noise because of high port velocity.
