Is this a dumb idea

oh yes standing waves can occur in sub boxes. Infact some competitors might use this to their advantage for a boost of SPL at certian frequencies. Smart guys.

[SPLThunder 10+ year member]

yes they are very long wavelenths but they can still be standing

 

[Mercureie 10+ year member]

so even if a wave has not full developed it can still be standing? does this happen if there is a node or antinode at one of the wals of the enclosure? please exuse my ignorance, ive only taken the intro physics course in high school.

trust me i dont car if people are ignorent just stupid. I am ignorent about many things

Yes a wave can be standing if the length is i think 1/4 the wavelenth i think. but i know for sure it is a least one half.

while u guys are discussing ports i was wondering does the opening of the port have to even with the cone of the woofer? or can the port stick out past the cone?

Nope, it doesn't matter if the ports stick out. Might even be good for some who needs more volume in their box. Ports located outside might allso be good for those running exchangable ports. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
