In MiniMe, after study all recommendations and talking with a number of port speaker manufactures I decided to go a simplest route. It will be one single port at the bottom. What pervaded me was the Precision Port Company. Then make 2” port with 4” and 4.5” flare (little horns) on both sides. The pipe between the flare is 12” and it length might be adjusted, most like I will end up with 3”-4”. I have no idea how the port will perform as there are so many new variables in this new MiniMe speaker: new array of LF woofers, new G10 enclosure, new damping, new port, etc. I think it shell be OK, if the worst case I will race the resonance frequency. After all it shell not be a “perfect bass” but rather an acceptable bass. My preliminary circulations suggested that I might be able to get out of MiniMe OK-sounding 40-45Hz. Would it be more on 35Hz side or on 50Hz side will be seen…
