Soffited Dynaudio BM6A bass port managing
Posted: Thu Oct 19, 2017 6:49 pm
Hello to all.
I have a pair of Dynaudio BM6A that I want to infinite baffle on my soffit front wall. So I'm gathering the info I can in order to manage the rear bass port of the speakers correctly... I know this might get tricky but I want to give it a try.
Here are a few things I've read that might be helpful: 1. To plug the rear bass port with foam might help controlling/level lowering the bass response. (does that only apply on a free standing design?)
2. An option would be to extend that bass port to the front. Impedance issues might occur, though. ¿What is the best method to extend it? ¿What material to use?
If the bass port is not extended... ¿what should I do to adapt the soffit to the speaker?
Also, regarding the soffit, I'm planning on placing the monitors on a stand inside but disconnected from the soffit structure: Could I NOT box the monitor and instead place it on Primacoustic Recoil Stabilizers http://www.primacoustic.com/recoils/ ? Thanks!
