Slot ported box help
|
Bronze Member Username: SecretsoundzSt. Paul, Mn USA Post Number: 40 Registered: Aug-05 | I'm planning on building a dual slot ported box, and have a few questions here... 1. How close is too close for the end of the port to be to the back wall? 2. Should I subtract inner port area from box space to find volume? 3. Whats the best way to find my sub's displacement? 3. Anyone have a goodcutaway view of a proper slot port box and/or really good slot port box webpage? Thanks, Shawn |

I know there are "calculators" on the net, but I would like the actual formulas and I haven't been able to find them anywhere on the net. |
