This is slightly off topic.

I had been thinking that a flat sided end panels on a sideways sonotube sub would be great. The only difference is I want to use external ports. Since circles are one of the least space efficient designs, I thought I would put two 2"-3" ports coming out the side near the back with an 90 degree elbow running under the sub, and coming through the front baffle/endcap. Here is a crude drawing of my thought.

Sounds cool. The only concern I'd have is cutting into the side of the sonotube in such a way that the port would have a snug fit. I imagine anything could be patched with enough silicone - but the more snug the fit the less the sonotube itself would be compromised.

A while back I saw a webpage from an Australian guy who did a lot of external ports. He made them look very cool.
