How does port sizing work? I don't want to cut the port out larger to experiment, If I build a bunch of .125"wood plates with 11x3 holes and start stacking them will it increase the port size eventually equaling a 12x3? Is port volume in any way relevant?

Playing with WinIST Pro, to equal the graph of a 3x12x.75 inch port, the 2x11 would have to be 9/16" or .5624" thick, which seem counterintuitive, but I am not ready to drag out the jig saw just yet.
I have not opened up the back yet because I am too busy enjoying these things to go to the trouble of trying to take out the 32 slotted screws and replace them with Philips head screws. I can find no information on the 32B horns which I assume have 802 drivers. It has been mentioned that they probably have symbiotic diaphragms, and frankly, they sound pretty good, but I do have a Piezo super tweeter helping them along...

Correct, the vent area [Av] sets the minimum [highest tuning] Fb for a given box volume [Vb] and the longer the vent, the lower its tuning, ergo making it longer won’t make it any bigger [higher power handling].Originally Posted by Altec Best
