Hi all,

When making a port out of PVC, is it ok to use "elbows" if there is a situation where the port can not run straight? Does this change the manner in which the port behaves, or affect the length calculations? How do you measure a "bent" port?

All advice welcomed.

Cheers!

Yes a curved port is artificially 'longer' than it measures. The effect is minimal in car audio.
