[QUOTE="Buffalohed, post: 2789762, member: 573552"] I asked some questions about the LMS 5400 on the TC forum and am even more confused now. Someone said the 18" 5400 needs close to 100 inches of port area. He said less than that would make a ton of port noise and distortion and would be "crippling" the driver. I don't see how that is even possible, but TC website lists port area for the 18" as 37.5 inches. Obviously it is near impossible for me to get 100 inches of area in a box only 20 inches tall, that means it would need to be like 5.5" wide, and it would only go 10" front to back before needing to turn around. How can I find out how much port area would actually be needed, between 37 and 100 inches, so I can determine whether the **** thing will fit in my trunk or not? [/QUOTE]
