In this video, I show my process and tools required to make an aero port out of a PVC pipe, heat gun, and a mold. Be sure to check out amicustoms TEAM SOB - TEAM SOUTH - TEAM SOUNDQUBED RATE SHARE SUBSCRIBE
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.
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.
flares may look pretty but builders must keep in mind that any flare design will not affect the bass output quality, its simply for cosmetic appearance
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.
Brother love the video, can u please please tell me how many inches extra would i have to add to my length of port for this? Thank ahead of time & thanks for video bro.
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?
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.
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
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.
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
Was hopin to see u at slamology andy! will u be attending any shows this year within a 3 state radius of Pennsylvania? the Carolinas are kinda pushin it for me..12hr drive. but id doit if I knew u b there.
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.
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.
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?
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?
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
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
@@AMICUSTOMS please keep making videos your videos are very useful and important to people that do want to learn more information I follow from Canada 🇨🇦 #YSW
@@AMICUSTOMS yes building more speakers boxes for car audio what about home theater systems boxes i follow you 💯 from 🇨🇦 #YSW keep up all of your great work you are doing
+Spoogethat volume was fine for me on asus n56jr laptop aside: some skateboard grip tape on that lower spindle would keep it from slipping ...or even electrical tape in a cross stitch pattern or even some medical gauge tape would work.
+Sebastian Williamas Aero increases efficiency as it allows the air to exit smoother and faster. Yes it affects the tuning you have to add length due to the flare.
thin wall schedule 20(eggshell) I watch that stuff crack, split and shatter all the time. save yourself the time and effort on re-doing that stuff. use the schedule 40 the time and effort spent. more than satisfy you for longevity.
juggernautxtr AZ? Not sure who that is but the blue box in this video has same pipe I use in the video. And he plays it everyday and that was going on 3 years ago. So I think the pipe is fine, but I could be wrong lol.
