AI James Posted March 22, 2009 Report Posted March 22, 2009 (edited) its really noy that much space to square it up. im of the mind do it correctly or dont do it at all. Edited March 22, 2009 by Forum Asshole Quote
andreg3000 Posted March 22, 2009 Author Report Posted March 22, 2009 So after some port tweaking (5"W to 4"W), I was able to get rid of the nasty port turn. Now I'm at ~7.5ft3 and 31-32Hz after displacement. However this now leaves me with just 78"2 of port. Anyone want to comment on whether or not having optimal 12-16"2 port per ft3 in this situation is going to make a major difference. I would rather stick with this design and not have a crazy port, but if having sub-optimal port area is going to decrease efficiency and overall sound then I need to start over. As always, thanks for the advice. Quote
andreg3000 Posted March 23, 2009 Author Report Posted March 23, 2009 Anyone know if not running usual 12-16"^2 of port per ft^3 is detrimental to overall sound, port noise or efficiency??? Quote
raytard Posted March 23, 2009 Report Posted March 23, 2009 output will be decreased by how much, its hard to say, could be a db, could be 3.... then again, it may be louder, who the hell knows?

True, who the hell knows. Oh well, thank you guys for all the advice. Figure now its time to build and see how it sounds. Would rather ask twice (or three times) and cut once. Will have some build pics in the upcoming days. Quote
