[QUOTE="Moble Enclosurs, post: 7475520, member: 634917"] I agree as well that 29Hz is pretty low to tune to for either situation, but if that is your desire, then let's see if it can work. As others have said, and I, that a slot port configuration may be more worth the time due to the ability to go around the enclosure for added length, and also, importantly, to add square area if needed to reduce port noise. It is why they are so popular. But let's try to stay away from generalization in designs. Every design will have it's own limitations, so considering all factors and not just concentrating on port configuration is important. For this, I would not recommend any of these port programs or calculators,a s they are very general.....can be effective in a conventional matter, but more accuracy is needed for optimum output than a simple formula that in most cases do not consider the driver installed. So, the information we all have given you is all great to keep in mind. Keep your options open. In some cases, I have figured that a sealed enclosure may be more applicable even though the person may want a ported....sometimes it just doesn't work. But again, options open and with a little help like you have been getting so far from all of us, you will get there. [/QUOTE]
