Silver Member Username: Racer501ND USA Post Number: 147 Registered: Jun-05 | the pipes were supposed to be all the same size i just aint that great with paint lol....But it isnt necisarily like that the port could be above the sub or what ever but would a port work like that though? or what if you had like a change in size like the part that is facing out what if you changed that to like 8" and the part that was inside the box was 4" what would all happen?

Post Number: 302 Registered: Jun-05 | Problem is - your main port now becomes your choke point. being fed from a pair of tubes the same size going to a single tube... Could make your main port bigger, but then you're defying the "keep port one size' rule. s |

Anonymous | if you could put each end of the T close to a corner on each side.. i think it would be possible to gain 2db and some detailed musical air flow... built right it would change the port air from sounding like @$$ to something more musical built wrong it would just increase resonance/echo slur it would probably be best if the port was Y shaped with each end of the Y sucking the bottom of the pyramid/corner..(picture a brace for a corner) funny folded acoustics lol |
