Post Subject: Playing a music on the ports…Posted by Romy the Cat on: 9/17/2008

Petar,

What you say doe make sense but I think I am in a different environment. I use the driver about what I have no knowledge at all, I do not even know at this point where to source them. I will drive the thing lower then the drivers resonance frequency, if fact I will drive them as low as I can. I would agree that it ming and most probably will puff up bass and kill the lover MF. I will deal with it when I get there, but this Pilot speaker do not get objective to be a great speaker but rather “sufficient” speaker.

I like the idea of horn-like opening of the port –it shell create more smooth transformation of pressure. I was thinking about it myself as well as I have seen a few companies do it. Your idea of multiple small ports very much attracts me and I might very much go for it. I do not know how it effect sound by the fact of being multiple but to have 8 smaller ports on each side would allow to plug a few ports by ears if I found it necessary – sort of playing a flute on the ports  (valves) and tune the speaker to what it shell be –very slick idea and very much affinity with my level of insanity. The multiple small ports would be much easier to implement then my idea of reviving pipes….

There is two subjects that I do not know. Could you or anybody ease, tell me the different (in behavior of sound) between those versions:
