[QUOTE="DNick454, post: 5989540, member: 600755"] I would always go with one large port over several smaller ones. The several smaller ones have more surface area on the inside of the ports and cause a bigger air resistance, it's nothing huge, but it can change the intended transient response of the box. Also, when you have several ports, small inconsistencies could be multiplied. For example, the PVC pipe you by has an inside diameter that is slightly bigger or smaller than the actual number you calculated for, it wouldn't be that big of a deal. Add up that inconsistency 4 times and it might be enough to change the box's sound. Plus, a big huge circle port that you can fit you're head in just looks cool [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
