[QUOTE="DeonC, post: 496064, member: 1210"] They are basically closed-ended TLs, so they have no ports. Not quite. An infinite baffle is just a very big box. The box for an IB is basically the same size as the driver's Vas. Not as fancy, but yes. As my understanding goes, you just calculate a tapering, half-wave TL that is optimal for the driver of your choice and then build it. You just fold it the normal way. It will be a big box and not look as elegant as the Nautilus, but it will be the same in most other respects. For more info on TLs, go to the [url=http://t-linespeakers.org/]Transmission Line Speakers webpage[/url] and the [url=http://www.quarter-wave.com/]Quarter Wavelength Loudspeaker Design webpage[/url]. Lots of interesting info on both those pages. [/QUOTE]
