Re: Sizing a sonotube for a Stryke AV12 MkI
There might not be enough room inside a 16" diameter tube to bend the ports around...
When you subtract the volume of the speaker and the volume of the port tube from the total volume of the sonotube enclosure, you might find that the sonotube will be longer than 33 inches. In other words, you need 3 cu ft plus speaker volume, plus port volume inside the main sonotube.
If not, and you don't mind the look, let your port tube stick out of the sonotube. It'll look like a stove pipe on top of a round stove.
If that looks silly, then extend the outer sonotube so that the port tube is hidden inside it, with a bulkhead inside the sonotube so that the speaker is in the correct volume of sonotube. Sort of tube-in-a-tube approach. A stuffed sonotube.
