[QUOTE="Mr Cabinetry, post: 3466656, member: 571490"] This is not the same thing as a " FLARED PORT ", it's nothing more than a rounded over edge and I've been doing the same thing for sometime now to reduce the amount of port noise on the interior ends of round ports. The exterior Flare of the Flared Port is greater than 1", I know this because I'm doing an enclosure using 4 - 3" flared ports and I physically measured every detail of the ports to accurately draft them up in Sketch UP. The flared ports I am referring to are the ones sold by Parts Express and they are not even 3" ports, they are 2.75" ID w/ the OD of the flare @ 5 11/16" and the depth of the flare is 1.75" that effectively creates the radius of the flare @ 1.6904". So, what your showing isn't creating flared port, merely a round over edged port. And I'm sure that the principals involved for creating the tuning/design of a " Flared Port " are a alittle bit more involved than just rounding over the edge of the port and calling it a " flared port ". I'm not going to debate or argue it because difference's are plain as day. [/QUOTE]
