I know the general rule is 12-16 cubes.The box I'm designing has 15.5 sq. in. per cube. I figured that a larger port would be good because I listen to a lot of slowed music that will move more air, and this would reduce the chance of port noise.After doing some research I've found that too much port area can be a bad thing. I've read that on the low notes, it will make my subs free air and loss of cone control is more likely, and that it will make my box more peaky.I'm more of an SQ guy, and I don't want a huge peak or any excursion issues, as I listen to a lot of slowed music. Would 15.5 sq. in. per cube be too much, or would it be fine because it's not overly large?</blockquote>
