Interesting pictures. I see you show a straight port, a flared port and a couple of labyrinths. Are you interested in horn designs too?

Yes, horns are larger than vented speakers. But they are more efficient too. That's their main advantage - They amplify sound acoustically. This also means the cone doesn't move as far for a given sound output, so distortion is reduced too. But they are much larger.

sounds good! thank you for explane, Wayne. and thanks for private message. I'm realy not sure what and when can I posted.
ok. my son - Kosta, he's student of Art Academy, made big cases for future loudspeakers, but have not idea what's makes now. sealed, ported, or horn maybe.
this is big enclosers, I'll show pics for you next time. so, probably I'll try to calculate horn system
