The real way to elbow your ports...

[grassroots 10+ year member]

People here are so ****ing disrespectful. For people who are worried about port noise, and people who want to make their boxes and in turn their subs more efficient, this is good knowledge. For everybody else who doesn't care, this person went out of their way to try to help people, so you could at least acknowledge his kindness instead of flaming everything like a bunch of typical forum retards.

sorry, but this guy is an ******* and his thread was a poor attempt to market his box design sales by making it look like he had some revolutionary idea...

if it was anyone else, i wouldn't have even posted...

Perhaps some water would be useful in cleaning out your sandy vag?

Aww, how cute. This infant has finally learned how to construct insults! Oh sure, it's been used thousands of times before, but the point is that he's finally learning, and growing up!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/veryhappy.gif.fec4fed33b4a1279cf10bdd45a039dae.gif

I wasn't saying you HAD to do it this way, or you're wrong. This is just the proper way to do it. You can do whatever the hell you want. Leave it with out an elbow at all, I could care less. I was just informing the people who want to know the right way to elbow a corner, rather than just creating a bottle neck. I still don't know why you're trolling this thread.

No... no it's not. You're far from an authority on the subject...

Waste of time unless...1) You're trying to find a way to improve you SPL score (which this might actually hurt).

2) You want to improve your woodworking skills.

3) You just want something different.

This.

right, i mistook your user name for someone else.... that interchangeable port design far exceeded your apparent talents, my mistake....


besides lowering the tuning frequency, no i don't think it will. prove me wrong.

seems like just a gimmick to try and make a basic ported box into something special... trying to lure noobs into actually paying for one of your designs...

I'm not trying to sell my designs at all. I do free designs all the time for people who ask... most of the time I don't even charge, I just ask if they want to give me money, if not it's fine.

yea,idskot wont reply to my pm's now, so i guess the deal is off..i need a 2.5 cube box tuned to 38 with flared aero ports for trade for a alpine 9835 if anyone is interested.

Nah. I was away from my PC all day today. I've been busy trying to deal with some RL stuff.

He knows that... But it's far more consistent than a 90 degree port. The only way to make sure that it's cross section is exactly the same throughout the entire port is to curve the port.

This. It's not the OMG-PERFECT way, but it's a lot more linear than just throwing in a random 45* angle.

It's not a revolutionary Idea... I actually got the idea from Wasted_Ink, and he probably got it from someone else. I'm not trying to market anything. I was trying to teach, but you have something jammed in your ***, probably because I insulted one of your builds, or called you a some sort of name, so now you're all butt hurt over the situation and you're trying to flame me in a thread tht was just supposed to show people the proper way to throw in a 45* angle, rather than throwing it in blindly. It's not perfect, but it's closer than anything else (short of kerfing the whole port.

And interchangeable ports are not out of my league... they're pretty easy. I've just never designed one before.

It's an attempt to make the port closer resemble a straight line, which is the ideal port. If you think it's dumb, and a waste of time, by all means, that's your prerogative. However, if you think it's a good idea, here's how I do it, since this is the easiest way (short of kerfing the whole thing) to replicate something closer to a straight line.

Really want to make it perfect, get some PVC... and pour resin behind it.

It's true. I prefer round ports over slots any days. The only problem is the price. I don't have a router, so I can't make a flare, and to buy them are pretty costly. $20 bucks or so per aero, and most of the time it's 2 or 3. Well, depending on the design.

And, BTW, to anyone who thinks I'm trying to market my sub boxes...

That's 3 years of history from my PP received...

I've gotten paid for one design; it was $10 bucks that a member sent me through the mail. And the only reason I even accepted it is because I had $0 dollars. Period. I've made dozens of boxes, and I get a lot of thanks and what nots, but I've never had a complaint that the box didn't sound good, or there was port noise.

IDSkoT is very good at what he dose and how he dose it. I have learned a lot from him so all of you who think he is not good you need to shut up.

No, for a slot port... you put a section of PVC in the corner... pour resin behind it... let it cure...take way the PVC.

Also, "dozens" I doubt it. Quit over-exaggerating...

Oh. Wow, that's actually pretty good. Route in the sides so it's smooth. Nice thinking. And, yes, no less than a dozen, but no more than 30.
