Just wondering why two ports are required to be longer than a single port?
For instance if I tune a cab with a single 10" port, but the port velocity is too high and I add another port, these ports are then required to be 22.5" long each?
It's because they are Helmholtz resonators. Using multiple ports is similar to a single larger port with the same surface area. Larger ports = longer lengths for any given enclosure volume and tuning frequency.
