Box expert assistance needed

Silver Member Username: MendonmafiaUSA Post Number: 170 Registered: Aug-06 | Ok so im going to be building a trapizoid shaped box. its and isoscles trapizoid.so the port and subs will be mounted on a slanted surface(70 degrees from the horizontal) and the top of my port is going to be very close to the other side of the box. however the bottom of the port will be at the closest point 3.5 inches away and at the farthest part 6 inches. the port is going to be in the center of the box from the sides. i was wondering if i was going to have enough spacing from the back wall with this port. since i have a variable distance from the back of the box ranging from 1 inch at the closest point to 6 inches at the far point it makes it complicated. just to let you know i have 2 kappa perfect 12.1's in 3.5 net cubes tuned to 34.7 hz. | |

Silver Member Username: MendonmafiaUSA Post Number: 175 Registered: Aug-06 | The blue line represents the shortest point from the end of the port. the green line represents the farthest point from the end of the port. is this enough space between the port and opposing side of the box? i know that 3 inches is a minimum but is this equivilant to 3 inches? If not what can i do to fix this problem?
