RMK!, where is the "port" in that 2d drawing? I can't make it out if it's there.
It isn't shown on that drawing but is on the top right corner of the drawing same side as the drivers. The port has three possible hatch positions, edge, or either face side in that corner. The hatchs are held by 10 screws and can be swapped out for different port options depending on location/orientation. There is a grille that is installed over the port opening. Pretty cool concept.RMK!, where is the "port" in that 2d drawing? I can't make it out if it's there.
thanks for the pic RMK. was curious on how this worked.TH-SPUD

There are two hatches (not ports) in the driver corner that allow access to the drivers. The project does require a good quality and small electric screwdriverI originally was thinking that the port was going to be in the lower right corner of the drawing that would make it easier to switch out the drivers. Since they sent you knew drivers for the old sub how can you get into the box to replace them? Do the sides come off? With what I would presume, many many screws, since the port cover has 10? That's all. Can't wait to hear how two of them sound![]()
i think you know and i know what the next step is ...In moving the SPUD(s) 15’ away from the LP, I have lost a bit of the incredible tactile that the nearfield position generated but they sound better.
I have said this before,but I'm going to sit tight with the current audio for a while. In the past, I could always reach the limits of the subs and induce over excursion and bottoming. That includes my quad Fathoms or the dual PB13's we tested at the GTG last year.i think you know and i know what the next step is ...
(thanks for the driver pics btw)
two more spuds at the back so you can make mashed potato
You are correct sir ... my badRMK,
Hmmm. Are you sure the port is not in the lower left hand corner of the drawing? That would normally be where I would expect the port of a tapped sub to be.

Those new subs look beefier too...and I have the same rechargeable Skil driver as you.
Yeah, I love that little Skill ... comes in handy when working close quarters like with the SPUD drivers.Those new subs look beefier too...and I have the same rechargeable Skil driver as you.Handy little thing isn't it?
Despite the size (48"X45"X11") they actually give you many palcement options with the most obvious being as (or inside) a riser in an HT. Standing wall can also work well as they are only 11" deep.Which arrangement for the subwoofers do you like the most? I would think that placing them in the front would produce the most accurate and sonically pleasing performance.
