round is more efficient, a 90 degree bend has twice the resistence of a 45 degree bend, the more rounded you can make your bends/corners the more effeicent the air flow will be.

i was going to use magnetic force to float it . LOL

was actually thinking of using bolts to center it and hold it in place.

We accualy did something like that in Physics class with resonance tubes (open and closed) to see what different frequencys sounded like. and that kind of stuff.

not many cars can get me to pluggin my ears but this one.......damn. I mean the first minute is ok but that thing just really starts digging deeper and deeper in your earhole till you cant stand it no more. Seems like it does it with relative ease....16 12's on 8 amps.........gotta love it. :)

so yall have seen it done before?

thats cool that it will actually work though.

we might have to get us a 10 foot piece and play around with it.

we were thinkin about makin it sealed for sq, but jack said he's not sure about playin music with it.

hell i dunno, we're just gonna have to get some and try it out.

Why not go for a T-Line?

A tube is the perfect type.
