right, so when i read their page... i took it to mean that if i want a port, i have to add that volume on top of the recommended 1.75, as well as adding the occupied volume of the speaker itself... am i right in assuming that?

btw, I dont have the funds, that why i have to build and research my own stuffs... i cant just take it to a stereo shop and say "build me a box and put in a good speaker w/ an amp"
