How does this look?

[Percy]

ya i dont know if i mentioned that, so would my specs be right then? i guess where im mostly gettin confused is the port dimensions and what they mean exactly

[Percy]

anyone?

[Percy]

is this how i should do it? this of course isnt including the big 3

when u put port length into that box calculator is means the total port length, not the length for the piece of wood

u should do

20*32*27 external

6.76cuft@34hz

5" wide port... total port length is 23"

(actual wood would be 20.5)

13.67sqin/cuft

much better, u need more port anyways

no L needed

use dowel rods for bracing top to bottom, side to port wall and front to back

wouldnt the actual wood be 19.75? I see it as you need 23" of port, the correction factor is 2.5" since the port width is 5", and the front baffle is 0.75", therefore you that the needed 23" - 2.5" - 0.75" = 19.75".

20.5" would be as far as he could go before having to make an L port

looks fine, dont mount the amp on the box if you dont have to tho (looks like it in the pic)

that would depend on how he builds it tho, there are two ways to do the port bro

in the design pic i posted above it would be 19.75 because the front meets the port width, but that wasnt this box in discussion, just a random pic... u could have the port wall extend all the way to the front, and if u do that u dont have that joint inside the port to sand over

ill try and redo those dimensions for ya in a bit

ok i was just making sure i wasnt trippin, but a quick question tho, say if the port was similar to his last pic with the port in the middle, would you calculate the port area by the external dimensions of the port?

that would be great man, i did a little thing on sketchup to the specs in my first post, i would love some more explanation on the port dimensions

here is the sketchup

the port is a little off, i meant for it to be using the bottom wall of the box so essentially would be .75 in up then the port

[Percy]

come on people

[Decaf]

keep the same dimensions i gave you

the wood on the left and right of the port accounts for .1cuft

that changes it to [email protected]

this includes .1cuft for bracing so use dowel rods and small 45s

ok but you gave me dimensions before i showed you how i wanted the port on the bottom, so what exactly do i put in for the port dimensions? sorry but i dont understand what the w l and h of the port dimensions acutally mean
