Brooks Robinson Bronze Member Username: Bigred2069 Post Number: 91 Registered: May-05	Posted on Saturday, August 13, 2005 - 04:25 GMT where should ports go? on the outsides of the box or in the middle?

MuddyWaters Silver Member Username: Basshead86 Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 282 Registered: Aug-05	Posted on Saturday, August 13, 2005 - 04:47 GMT which means the farther away from the sub the port is the louder the bass, generally

astrosafari Unregistered guest	Posted on Saturday, August 13, 2005 - 04:55 GMT does carpeting the box effect the sound? some people were taqlkin a bout a frend of mine and sed that it would sound better with carpet i dont think so and they were sayin he couldnt take the few extra dollars to carpet it and make it better. if carpet makes it sound better im gonna put thick house floor carpeting on my boxes.
