so, im currently redesigning yet another enclosure for my home theater mains. was wondering what the effects, pros, cons are on port placement. using a 3 inch round port. a 6.5 and a 1 inch tweeter. so top near tweeter or on bottom below mid or just rear firing? pros cons? im thinking port on bottom with about 2 inches of separation between port and mid.

i like the port behind because then if there is any port noise you dont hear it.

but thats probly just me.

im basically rebuilding the last design just taller and wider and port on the bottom, so i know port noise is nothing to be worried about, except when i played some bass music a bit loud just to see lol, but that is extreme.

here is where i am at at the moment. http://www.caraudio.com/forum/showthread.php?t=407144

finished with the second one, couldnt get a pic with both finished cause ones already hooked up inside. im just going to clear coat them later on or just leave em. idk
