there is a 4" aero that comes out one of the sides for the back chamber. the big flare is a port for the front chamber.
If you are refering to the round cutout on the top of the box, that is actually a viewing window. I had some uv/scratch resistant Lexan vaccumm-routed into circles a while back for a cancelled project. So, I routed a recessed circle for the lexan to mount in, flush with the inside of the top/lid. then routed a small circle all the way through the top, then did a roundover on the outside. Since it's a 6th order, I decided I wanted a window so that I can watch cone movement and control. I think the small chamber size and variety of ports should help it from unloading too much.
The router did get away from me a little bit, so the viewing hole isn't perfectly round. I scuffed the lexan, then painted the top with resin, then screwed the lexan in. that's why there's drips going to wrong way.

I like copper-colored paint! [Blob]

I was indeed reffering to the round cutout on top .
Will be nice to have a viewing window

Curious what the results will be in output and sound , keep us updated !!

i found out I can not only burp, but play BOTH of my Brutus 2005d's for over 1minute on just 2x 20A fuses each. I need to get my impedance down bigtime. Lots more power in those amps.

it's ported out one of the sides. and a big flared port coming out the front.
I haven't had a chance to try the box. Someone came and stole all my amps, subs, radio face, maxxlink, etc. So, it may be a LONG time before this thing gets to play.

---UPDATE---
I'm back to work on this box.
My Brutus 2005d's and L7's were stolen. I have an Autotek MM3000.1 amp, XS D3100 battery. Big Jerry sold me a couple Hifonics Atlas Square 12"s from 2005'ish. So I have square subs again.
The Atlas have a different cutout, so I had to add another 1/2"MDF to the baffle. That will leave me exactly 1.95cf on the "front" chamber. It's glued and screwed. I'm off work next 2days , so if it's not raining, I'll add some resin.

pics tonight
Also gonna test those subs in my current daily box before this thing goes into the car.

Here's a few shots from the other night. bad weather and cooking on the grill while drinking beer slowed me down a little. but it does have resin on the new baffle, just haven't gotten picture of that yet  -

probably a little more updates sunday/tomorrow night. I'll be off work, so I'll do a little more if I don't drink too much. [Cool]

I can snap another photo tonight after I add some glaze putty. No major updates. I've been busy with work....and modifying my other box to fit the squares. I wanted to do a straight drop-in test upgrading from two 2008 CV Vmax's to the Atlas in the same box.
So far, sounds louder on music. On a burp, hard to tell by ear. Maybe one Sunday I'll meet up with Eric Alexander and do some testing. Didn't happen this sunday do to the unfortunate instance that happened to a friend.
More later tonight

D-Bass,

What kind of tuning and cubic volume's do the chamber's have? Which one is tuned low and which is tuned high? BP's are so intriguing to me and I would really love to gain a greater understanding on how to properly design/implement and BP enclosure. I hope these questions are not too invasive.
