4 Assassin 8's Build

[FurbiesAndBeans]

was thinking a really thin piece of plexi...... about 1/8"

and no not stealing cuz mine is gona get louder

btw i ordered 4 of the sa-8's

Thats what i did with mine


Painted the underside with red spray paint. then used 4 lil screws to hold it in place

And you should let me borrow 2 of those SA-8s to let me test them out

[misfit138]

indeed it does

just cant wait to c it with carpet. not sure i might go with grey... but black carpet is sexxy!

black & red go together nicely...

8"s drop low. Trust me

I can be a witness to that.

[DonH]

I can be a witness to that.

please fill me in! how many? and what 8's

the flare on the end of an aero port compared to a straight round port is of the most minimal effect. yes with a flared aero the port will be longer to achieve the same tuning as a straight aero but by only the most minimal amount

lulz. that is where all of the efficiency comes from...

i did not say anything about efficiency.... yes they have a less chance of port noise due to this but compared to a straight port with no flare there is littl change compared to the length you need for the same tuning.

who built that box?

yes but previously you made a comment as to your lack of port area being mediated by the fact that round ports need half the SA of slots. which is not true. the efficiency, and resulting reduction in necessary SA, comes from the flare.

This.

I had commented about that in a post I made earlier but you didn't get it I guess.

indeed the flare does help which im not arguing against bro. But as the port is round and not square makes the air easier to escape the box compared to a square or rectangular shape. u get what im saying? Im sure you do, but simply because there is no flare does not mean that one should have the same amount of port area as a SA slot port. need i say more?

[DonH]

and look im not here to argue with anyone but i can guarantee you i will have ZERO port noise

a round port has a minimal at best efficiency advantage over slot. no where near needing half the SA.
i do not in any way get what you are saying. it has everything to do with air entering and exiting the port repeatedly.
i guess you could say more if you would like, or you could just agree with me on this highly discussed topic about the basic laws of physics.

Nice box. Hope to get my 10's box redone this winter. Still workin on a new enclosure for it.

[Ray21]

The flares lower port velocity, which is how you can get away with less port area when using flared round ports, or true aero ports/precision ports.

alright dont want to turn my build log into an argument but thx for the input guys!
