Port are on some 8"r's
Tuesday, May 02, 2006 1:03 PM
I'm trying to do some figuring...alos asked some other places.

Is 2 4" round ports gonna be enough port area for 4 8" subs?

Personally I think at least 3 are needed...but other people seem to say 2 is fine. I've never played with 8's before so.....

Nope...no specs for rec. box sizes on the Tang Band W8-740C's.

Box will be 3 cubes total @ 32 hz.

Ehhh...I think I'm gonna have to get around 12-15 sq. in. per sub....so 36+ Sq.in. total.

2 4" round ports = 25 sq.in.

I think I'm stuck with round ports since my box is roughly 39.5" wide x 24" tall x 8" deep (O.D.). It's either the rounds or I'm going to have to figure out a square port.

Nope...box is only 8" deep. I think I'm gonna try a square/rectangle port up firing.....subs will be firing forward. Giant port = more port area= longer port

Do you have the room for a 6" aeroport?



The 50-50-90 rule: Anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there's a 90% probability you'll get it wrong.

I gonna do a square port. 6.5"x6.5" port = 42.25 sq. in. of port = about 10.5 sq.in. of port per sub. I'm happy with that.


I dont think I could fit a 6" aero cause it would flare out too much for a top or side mount port.
Thanks for the help though.
