G'day folks! I am currently building a couple of subs for a small PA system.
I'm going for a ported design and I'm wondering how critical port dimensions
are. I've seen a lot of cheaper commercial designs that just have a
rectangular "hole" at one end of the baffle, very few seem to use a round
port of a specific length as in HI-FI stuff. Is this because it doesn't
matter or they don't care? I'm using a single RCF L 15P 530 in each box (if
they ever arrive!), the catalog suggests a port 150mm ID by 127mm long but
that won't fit on my frount baffle. I figure two 100mm ports will have the
same area so I'll go with that. A nagging question remains... does it really
make much difference? A rectangular port is much easier to make. Any advice
would be appreciated :).
