ok...just want to run a sanity check. I've been running the numbers for days and I'm ready to start making dust. Here's what I'm proposing:
Ported sonosub
700 liters
2 7" ports, about 4' long
1 Tempest 15"
50% stuffed
this 'should' yeild a sub that's fairly flat down to 12hz or so. Concerns I have...the diameter of the ports is slightly larger than is 'recommended' but I'm not sure of the reason for the recommendation. (The recommendation I've seen is to keep the port 1/3 the diameter of the woofer). Whatcha think? The SAF isn't a problem; the sub will be over 8 feet tall at 24" diameter, but that's not a worry. Also, the ports will be on top; the woofer on bottom, so that I can give the ports a little room to breath. They won't be exactly 1 port diameter away from each other and from the walls....will that really cause a problem?
