How are those ends on the top port not slanted //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif That's what I was talking about^^^The bottom port doesn't have consistent line length throughout

i was kind of thinking the same.....

well I guess its tough to say on the bottom port because the port shares a wall of the enclosure so that's probably work too...

actually, neither port will share a wall of the enclosure. i am planning on building all 4 walls of the port

Because you aren't intentionally building the ports with a slant. It is just the way the port acts when placed directly against a parallel wall. It behaves like that regardless of whether or not the port mouth is slanted on the baffle. But if it was not placed against a wall, you would not need to slant the inside mouth of the port, just make it flat and measure down the middle.

like i drew in the 2nd picture

You will save valuable box space if you use the wall as part of the port. That is the way I'd recommend that you design it.

well, i've actually figured out the volume of the box with the ports not using a wall of the enclosure and im still at about 5 cubes.

so is this the right way to do it? the enclosure for the sub on the left is tall enough to fit the port running straight down. the enclosure on the right is not deep enough, so i will have to bend it. so is this correct?

If the top is narrow I would just fire that back port staight up.

 

[dannyz122001 10+ year member]

yea, i guess i could do that, i would just have to widen it and then the angled baffle would be shorter, but it might work

another question.... for the inverted sub, i would still cut the same size opening for the sub as given in the manual, correct?

 

[dannyz122001 10+ year member]

better??

I think you are making this a little hard, use round ports. Put them on the bottom facing forward, subs would share a common chamber.

 

[dannyz122001 10+ year member]

cant use round ports for a solox....

and i cant put them facing forward... (read up)

well its actually not that simple. i have a f-150 supercrew and i am removing the back bench and replacing it will 2 captains chairs. the enclosure will run between the rear captains chairs, from the center console to the back of the cab. the front of the box (the smaller side) will butt the center console and the larger side will be against the rear of the cab.

not that i think you should use them or not, just wonderin why u can't use round ports for a solo x? and i do agree that u should use a wall of the enclosure for the port, it will deffinetly save you room and work...
