Can irregular-shaped enclosures be ported accurately?

[Cravingbass123]

That's one way, if you are in a hurry. The way we do it at the shop (for our VIP customers) is to use Jello.

jello is the other very accurate way!!!!!!!

How irregular are we talking here guy?

Fiberglass enclosure with rounded edges and corners and sides which are > or

Thanks for all the great advice. Foam peanuts sound good.

It can be done, but you have to use an irregulrly shaped port.

 

[t1990le 10+ year member]

just use the correct line formula that contors on a line plot the same exact way as the fiberglass box and then take the integral from each side from corner to corner and add them togetther. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif (or fill that bish with salsa and convert)

angles do not change the overall math angles jsut change the way you might ahve to process the way you calcualte the design thats it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I can't believe nobody has mentioned to this poor fellow that bass waves don't work with irregular enclosures, so whether you port it or not its going to sound like shit unless its square

Not true my foreign friend. Square ports work well with L7's (or any other square shaped subwoofer) regardless of the shape of the box because the square frequencies produced. Same reason circle ports/pvc is recommended for circular subwoofers.

Exactly, although Rashyadd did bring up a good point... You might need an irregularly shaped woofer, like an xplod or the bazooka triangle one.

In theory, yes. If the box is something like a trapezoid, or even a rhombus, then I would look into the triangular subs.

Type Arghh is only good in some enclosure types... Not all types. If they offered it in different shapes it would appeal to a lot more customers.

Companies like Sony, MTX, Bazooka, quadrasub, etc understood the need and started producing subs of different shapes to meet customers needs.
