It was around $12. Don't remember how long the

roll was though....

It's a little more than just a hole in the box.

Think of a port more like a tunnel that goes into

the box not just a hole.

There are formulas that determine the size and

length of a port for a specific subwoofer depending

on the tuning freq you choose.

They're not too hard to make, but you need to do

some homework before slapping one together or

it will sound like garbage.

Ported boxes ARE harder to make than sealed one's

but the increased SPL from ported boxes is well worth

the extra work!
