[QUOTE="PV Audio, post: 2628326, member: 554493"] Really. Okay, then in that case, consider this:These are two completely theoretical drawings. Let's assume that they both have the exact same interior space, and exact same port length, and exact same driver.

Note the separate chambers, but the total interior space without the port length on the end is the same as the previous one. Now, are you honestly telling me that the speaker will utilize the airspace in those chambers even though that passage on the bottom is maybe 2" high, and that it'll behave the same since it "pressurizes" all of the airspace and all airflow will go out the port?
