[QUOTE="Kangaroux, post: 7738434, member: 628495"] Same considering I've never metered any of my setups before. Should be a good bit louder now too after doing some port work. Cut out the 2 4's that were in there and replaced it with an 8" tuned to 40hz as opposed to my old tuning of 35. Cut out an area to mount the new port [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/DwtU8.jpg[/IMG] Cut the port down to 16" (once it's in the box it will load off the rear wall and extend the length out to 24" for a tuning of 40hz) [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/1lhe3.jpg[/IMG] Figured out this cool technique when I was working with the PVC ports. Makes attaching the ports SO much easier. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/bOKPl.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/mAWoK.jpg[/IMG] Also, if you don't have a router and can't cutout the circle for the port perfectly and there is a gap between the port and the wood, then use the method above to hold it in place, liquid nails one side of the wood to seal it up, then flip it over and pour some glue into the gap. The liquidnails will seal it off from air leaks and also holds the glue in place while it hardens. [/QUOTE]
