wake175m5 Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 So i am thinking about getting the components and building custom enclosures but need to know some dimensions, especially the port. is the port just an opening in the front or does it have a baffle that goes part way back to the back of the sub? any help on any of the dimensions would be very appreciated. Thank you 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babadono Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 I don't know much about this but I'm still sure that the port has a baffle. How long? I don't know. Others will come along with all kinds of advice and info. There are free programs available to help with the design of speaker cabinets. Have fun. BTW the RSW-15 has a passive radiator and no port. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wake175m5 Posted March 10, 2021 Author Share Posted March 10, 2021 Damn it! I was moving too quickly I meant the R-115SW! Babadono, thank you for the response and catching my mistake! Do you have a favorite enclosure program? Free and or paid? Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedi Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 The port is 1" high and extends almost all the way to the back. The narrower and longer the port, the lower the tuning, at the expense of efficiency at higher frequencies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jedi Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 You're welcome. Here's a simple online calculator for ported enclosures that only supports circular ports: https://www.lautsprechershop.de/tools/t_box_vented_hoges_en.htm When im doubt, it's usually better to just make it sealed, rather than mistuning a ported enclosure.
