Gold Member Username: SouthernrebelMonroe, Louisiana USA Post Number: 2202 Registered: Mar-04 | yep...you can, infact my daily port is L-shaped. http://www.sounddomain.com/ride/650399/1 just remember to factor in port displacment when you tune the box. |

Gold Member Username: SouthernrebelMonroe, Louisiana USA Post Number: 2204 Registered: Mar-04 | you talking about how its angles in the back? i originally built the port in a true L-shape, but if wouldnt fit in the box. (lmao, dee-dee-dee) so i just cut it and made it angled. it actually helps air flow cause it makes the port not have a 90degree turn. |

Silver Member Username: Jprix82Post Number: 149 Registered: Jan-06 | What if the box had more than 1 sub would a L shaped port still work? |
|
Gold Member Username: SouthernrebelMonroe, Louisiana USA Post Number: 2206 Registered: Mar-04 | yep...just make sure you have enough airspace for both subs. ex: 2 12's...3.75-4.5cuft net |

Silver Member Username: Jprix82Post Number: 150 Registered: Jan-06 | 2 more questions for you marshall, If i had 2 subs and put the port in the middle of the box it wouldnt matter which sub the L part faces right?...And what could i use(that i can buy online)to hold the port in that is easy to remove so i can change ports? |

Gold Member Username: SouthernrebelMonroe, Louisiana USA Post Number: 2208 Registered: Mar-04 | 1) i wouldnt put an L-shaped port between 2 subs...put the subs on one side and the port on the other. [OO {}] 2) use t-nuts and bolts. http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?&DID=7&Partnumber=081-1088 look at my how-to guide on building interchangable ports. http://www.sounddomain.com/ride/650399/6 |

Gold Member Username: Tdeaton1021Near Tampa, Florida USA Post Number: 1946 Registered: Sep-04 | it alows the port to curve for longer port lengths |
|
Gold Member Username: SouthernrebelMonroe, Louisiana USA Post Number: 2209 Registered: Mar-04 | when the port length needed to tune a box to a certain freq. is longer than the box is deep...you can make a bend in your port to get the needed length. |

Gold Member Username: Tdeaton1021Near Tampa, Florida USA Post Number: 1947 Registered: Sep-04 | haha! i win, yours was more in depth like usual though lol |
|
Silver Member Username: Jprix82Post Number: 151 Registered: Jan-06 | only reason i asked because i was thinking of building a wall of 4 12's and i wanted the port to be between the 2 front seats example- O[]O O[]O |

Silver Member Username: Jprix82Post Number: 152 Registered: Jan-06 | thanks marshall |
|
Gold Member Username: SouthernrebelMonroe, Louisiana USA Post Number: 2214 Registered: Mar-04 | if you have the L pointing to one sub and not to another, you may get some odd turbulance in the box. but you could have an L port w/ the port angling up or down. (not toward either sub) O[^]O O[v]O |
