There is a huge difference between the two with wave lengths, cancellation and results.

the pic above is ported through the back wall basically the diamond is a common chamber and the opening at the back is the port but im sure the baffles will add port length and end up tuning you really low
your box is fine

VERY,VERY nice job there. i am extreamly picky and that looks amazing, the detail. props for a amazing job!!!!

yea with porting threw the back wall like that you would have to guess on tunning because the diamond acts as the port.
