Thanks for posting never thought it would have melted or molded as easily as it did great work
Nice Work! I am in the middle of doing this to flare a grey sewage pipe but did not have a smooth surface to push it on, so it split and collapsed. Now I found a smooth surface to push it on. I wanna flare it from 110 - 160mm to fit my existing kitchen fume extractor fan on it and keep it in the attic where it makes less noise.
Thank you for all you do bro!
easy, efficient and effective, my kind of diy
I like the process of flaring the port like this. I thought about adding some upright pieces to 4 sides of the lazy susan to keep the mold from sliding off when you were heating/spinning the port.
Koool, I'll be attempting my first aero ports box. Doing 4 6" ports for 3 15s..To buy 4 6" would cost me 150 bucks..Thanx for the info.
That’s awesome! Thanks for the tip
thats pretty cool of making an aero port. thanks.
So cool! Thanks brother!
AMICUSTOMS Whats better a L port box or Aero port box and does wattage and size of sub matter for each type of box, like is one better for lower wattage system or higher wattage system?
nice work mate that is helpful
Wonderful! Thanks!
Thanks for the great demonstration,is it ok to use 2 pieces of inch and a half pipe instead of one piece of four inch ? i dont have enough space the 4 inch.
Nice idea bro very useful atleat for me, .......love you bro from INDIA.
Very clever! Thumbs up!
Cool video thanks for the tips that box is awesome to 👍🏼👍🏼✌🏼💪🏼🔈💪🏼🔉💪🏼🔊
Pretty cool man 💪🏼💯👌🏼
I think that you should try a thicker PVC pipe for more resonance.
AMICUSTOMS awesome video. Keep these up please that was helpful

Is this thin wall pvc?
What do you think about having the port towards the driver side? Is it supposed to be twice as loud? Or
I use term-lab and it says to use a 6x10.25 flared port. Do I cut 10.25 and them flare it? Also does the flare have to be the same size on each end? Great video by the way.
Great idea. Thanks
Good video man nice work
Nice video. Thank you for sharing.
Thick walled pvc works great, I built one today.

Thats perfect bro
Thanks for sharing.
muy buen trabajo
Excellent video vlog and how to make areoports
I want to build a class 4 box that fits on the rear deck of a 2004 grand marquis. I want the port tuned as low as possible. I love a low end monster. and I want it pass thru the rear seats arm rest so the bass will only enter the cabbin (no trunk rattle). I want to use 4 sundown audio 8". my questions are with the airspace , and a is port possible for the build. well over all is it possible to build and if so any possible combinations that will accomplish the job will be appreciated.
Do you think this would work with PP pipe aswell? PP is the most common material where I am from
Hi, Which gives better performance in SPL, aeroport or long vents? thanks..

What’s better aeroport or side port ? It’s for a 8 inch massive hippo
Nice I knew there was a way to do that

That's awesome!
Do you still make three areo ports
Excellent

I will be giving this a try
Is that a sheetrock jack in the background? Also I have asked others this question a not got a response.. Can I run 2 Taramps Smart3k's to a common chamber 4 12''s. Two on each amp. If so how there is no phase adj.
Great video thanks. Can you design a mould for me?
So if I say have a port length of 12 inches that would set my tune once I stalled unflared , but then I went to flare l both ends , would that effect the tuning now having flared ends ? Not sure if this little change effects tuning if any or at all . Because to me seems it could effect it because of the preset length determine the frequency ...just. question I had
@JasonWW2000

If you add flares to the 12" pipe, like using epoxy, it will not change the tuning. If you flare the ends of the 12" pipe, its not going to be 12" any more. It might be 9" and that changes the tuning. Rule of thumb is that flares are not counted as far as port length is concerned.
i used an aeroport calculator and it says i need an 8 inch port. does it mean that my port length including the flares from end to end needs to be 8 inches?

So friend, not even the RE told me the duct's measure to tune the box, like length and diameter, the model of my subwofeer is RE SEX 10D4 V1, the manual says to make a box dutada of 35.4 liters plus the duct, could help me?
Bud, do you have a 10" aero port laying around, need it to be 17 " long... I'll buy it of course...
How do you size the port for a box?
have you ever heard of the bumpboxx?
i like the box looks biutiful men
Where did you get the thin pvc?
should have some clamps to hold while you turning it to make the port so it wont slide around if that makes sense
Whats the name of the song at the end of the video?

why do aero ports need to have less port area than sloted ports?
andrew, whats your thoughts on aero vs slot ports. i got 2 hdc3 15s and ampere 3800 and i wanna get the most clean low bass with ability to hairtrick.

My view is under 10 cubes box should run aero, over 10 cube do slot port. That is what I have done and tested and seems to be the cut off.

Does the length and diameter of the port affect the sound? Is there a way to calculate how lone the tube needs to be or do you just tune your amp to get the right sound?
@preston2078
2 жыл бұрын
I think that using his rule of thumb for the tube and round over radii is just a short cut to ensure you have approximately/at least double the cross section area at the flared end compared to the basic pipes area. Thats just my guess though
@thomhill2054

The length and diameter determine the tuning. It’s a science. I do not suggest guessing at it.
I do have a question.. is it absolutely necessary to partially aero flare the opposite end of the pvc for a sub box on the end that goes into the box ? I never knew that is there any gain or loss to doing that
@garrettrichards5559

While it's not absolutely necessary, it reduces port turbulence/chuffing noise.

Good process but i do notice its not a even flare for a flat surface. Id suggest a taller center on the mold to keep it from wobbling or a exterior brace to go up higher around the outside to keep it centered at you press the mold
