[QUOTE="Ivan Beaver, post: 132692, member: 30"] Re: No compromises front loaded double 18” cab I was building my cabinet back in the 90s with triangular ports (as in this build), long before anybody else was doing it (that I was aware of). The biggest advantages it gave me was a smaller front baffle area and greatly stiffened up the side walls of the cabinets. I did not have any measurement gear back then-but the results I got were impressive-as compared to the cabinets that I previously built using circular ports-using the same wood (13 ply baltic) and the same drivers. I don't know if it was the shape of the port-or the additional bracing on the side walls (most likely) or the fact I was able to get drivers closer together (not usch a big deal at those freq)-but I was happy with the results. Take that for what it is worth. [/QUOTE]
