Posted September 21, 201212 yr I've heard as a general rule to have at least 12in^2 of port per cubic ft. Is this solely to keep port noise down?Reason I ask is because a box size I've tinkered around with for my next build has 8.5-10in^2, yet in Winisd Pro it shows to only have a port velocity of about 60 ft/s. I've heard anything under 100ft/s is fine. Am I missing something? Facts wrong maybe?
September 28, 201212 yr There is no relation between port area and enclosure volume.Haha. There you go again talking about things you know nothing about. Just visit the SMD forum - they will let you know you can't even begin to determine the amount of port area required without knowing how big the box is going to be. And don't even think about doing over 16 sqin per cuft - that is reserved for SPL applications only.Oh - and less port = better lows, more port gives you better high bass.If you can't remember these basic rules, just download everyone's favorite calculator over there - it figures all this out for you.Just keep reading my friend, you're learning.

September 28, 201212 yr Ha!It drives me nuts!! Every answer over there is 12-16 sqin per cube!I just like giving Mike a hard time. . .I've learned a lot from him through the years!

September 28, 201212 yr I think typing "SMD forum" is the cue for being sarcastic.Then I missed it because so many people actually drink the kool-aid there.
