proper vent alternative for zaph sr71

hotblade6 · 2nd October 2008, 12:36 PM

Greetings.

i want to build zaph's sr71 kit.I would order the kit without the enclosure from madisound but it costs too much for shipping to Greece, so i searched for the parts in europe stores.I found them all in BMM-electronics but the vents and the crossovers.For the crossovers theres no prob cause i think i can find alternatives in local stores or build them myself.The problem are the vents.It's true that im not familiar to the characteristics of a vent.Which one could fit, with or without cutting, from those available in bmm?

is there any other solution, anyone can propose?
thanks to all!

Hi
You could build your own vent too?
Using either PVC or cardboard tubes with an equal or closest diameter. Quick 30 sec search for a formula for a slight differing diameter with a new length yields one link here. Vent length recalculation formula
hope this helps,
