[QUOTE="SlugButter, post: 8692338, member: 678073"] Some would say not to bend the aeroports. It’s always better acoustically, in theory, to not have a bend in aeroports, but the port placement becomes an issue In some designs. Since you’re doing a side port, trying to design it without a bend in the port would be my hesitant advice, although I have never had any negative experience in the real world bending an aero port. Doing sub and port firing the same direction almost always requires a bend in the port , and ive never heard anything with my ears that would make me believe that it affects sound much to do a bend of 90 degrees, as long as port area itself is sufficient. I suppose, for the purpose of metering in comps, a rise of a fraction of a decibel makes a difference, so you’d want straight ports, but to my ears, I’ve never had an issue bending aeroports.
