Hi all,
Recently I had another thread in this forum where I got some great advice. Work has now commenced, so I decided to start a new thread now that I know what I'm building and my other thread had become a bit disjointed. Hope that's ok!
I have everything here (excluding the drivers and crossover components) and I'm well on my way building a single OS MTM. I'm sure glad I did this for practice since I'm not experienced with woodworking so several mistakes have been made
Now with the Khanspires, I asked briefly in my old thread and e-mailed CJD about the port since I can only get 70mm and 100mm flared ports (dayton not precision), not the stated 3". Unibox was telling me 70mm could be too small, but CDJ kindly assured me it would probably be fine but he prefers overkill.
I Have since ordered and received the 100mm ports. Holy cow these things are huge!
So here's my concern. In my mind with a larger diameter, wouldn't it require more airflow for resonance/output to occur? So will it require higher volumes/driver displacement before the port starts to do it's job? I hope this makes sense.
One other concern I have is that I bought some Monacor 35mm spiked feet, but with such a heavy enclosure wouldn't these be prone to ripping out of the MDF base if someone leaned on it?
I really appreciate the help you guys offer.
As a side note, I included a picture to show the size of the port but also to show CJD I too like overkill. (I greatly underestimated how much 2kg of filling is, and I could only get a 14m roll of denim insulation) That's a 2ft Ruler in-between the ports for reference :lol:
