[QUOTE="Immacomputer, post: 5040084, member: 570419"] Eh, you can get it closer to the back if you need to and not have any real noticeable effects. You may gain some too actually by adding a little more loading to the system. The "rule" of 1 port width from the back is like all other rules, vague and not 100% correct. Half the port's width would still be acceptable but tuning will usually be a little lowered due to the extra loading and increased effective port length. For those of you who really think you need to have the box a port's width away from the back should try getting it as close as it safe for the subs (if they're on the same plane) and they should listen for differences and then pull it far away from the back. I bet they would find increased output around tuning with it closer to the back. [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
