View Full Version : Fiberfill in a Ported Box for my H2?
05-03-2005, 07:40 PM Quick summary - built a box 2.5 cubes tuned
to 30hz (14.5x2.5 port) for my Orion HCCA 12D. It had a warped
voice coil so I just got an Orion H2. The same box would work
nicely according to WinISD (and doesn't sound too too bad at all
as is) but the H2 displaces a lot more air.  .25 cubes more
displacement for the Orion H2 vs the HCCA 12D according to
Orions literature. I know it's not typical to stuff a ported box
with polyfill but can it be done? If it just gets stuffed I
presume it will end up finding it's way out the port. I read
about using a cage or something to hold it in but also how that
could induce noise. Any other ideas for me?  I am not completely
against building a new box but would at least like to buy myself
some time until I do.  05-03-2005, 09:07 PM The whole point of
porting a box is to let the backwave escape. I believe, don't
quote me on this, that you'll basically just kill off the back
wave with fiberfill, and
