Ok, that sounds better. It says for 4" round a 18.67" long port, or if I go 3" round, a 9.95" port. How come it is shorter for a port with less diameter? Also, does it matter where I place the port, like front of the box, back of the box, sides?

Ok, I just went to that site to calculate the port size, and based upon frequency and xmax, the port diameter would be almost 7" and the length is like 60". I am pretty sure that isn't correct. What did I do wrong? The xmax is 24 mm, tuned to 28 hz. in a 2.0 cubic foot enclosure, right?

I do like the low bass, so I would probably be better suited to go with 2.0 cubed like you say. I am a newbie to the ported enclosure scene, so how do you tune a port to a certain frequency? Is it just the size of the port opening and port area in relation to the size of the enclosure?
