BassJunkie Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 With the nooby questions that is, well I have only built sealed enclosures, and I'm telling you that I absolutely SUCK at math, and the next enclosure I am building is going to be ported, I want it tuned to 40 hz, I keep seeing people saying (for example) 19 inches of port, does that mean 19 square inches or port in any type of shape that I want it?

01xtreme Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 port is either area(H x W), and length. in order to find your tuning you have to know the volume of your enclosure, and from there you can plug the port area, and length into a calculator with the box volume, and it will tell you what the enclosure is tuned to.

BassJunkie Posted February 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 MS Paint FTW! Sorry for the crappyness but does that matter or just the square area to the left of my arrows?

ChevyBoy Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 yes it does matter. should be the same distance from the wall as the port width. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks so much, I have been so confused on porting, I think I'm ready to build a box now, I got enough money for 2 alpine's just gotta save up a little more to get a amp for it =) Quote 1986 C20 Suburban 9 American Bass XFL 15's B2 M1MKII 14v XS Power Batteries Maxwell Caps Acoustical energy is free.
