Having a little trouble with this.
Ok i know my physical pL is 20in and my depth is 18.5(internal)
First wall = Depth - port width 18.5 - 2 = 16.5 in
Second Wall = Physical pL - (internal depth + 1.5) 20-(18.5+1.5) = 0
thats the part where i get confused
does that mean i dont have to make a second wall or what cause im not sure
*edit* i change the physical pL to 20 b/c that would be closer to the 33hz i want
Fb = 0.159*Sqrt[35*1.84*10^8/(5989.375(20+0.823*Sqrt(35)))]
Fb = 33.06136067

So if my first wall is 16.5 in but in reality it would be 18in in pL
16.5 + .75 + .75 = 18
so i would need a second wall of 2in to get my 20in pyhsical pL
could some1 tell me if that is correct

so if i measure down the middle
16.5+.75+.75+1 = 19
so 19 would be the Pl with the first wall in
making the second wall 1in would give me the 20 pL
now that i think i have its time to draw out a diagram of the box

been messing around with autocad 2005 and with the first wall 16.5in that should give me my 20in physical pL
16.5(port wall) + 1 + 1 +1.5(mdf)
