⚠️ Engineering Notice for Builders

  • The textbook alignment (9.3 L at 46.6 Hz) would need a 173.2 cm port; the recommendation is retuned to 9.3 L at 60.6 Hz so the port can be built.
  • Port length (98.8 cm) exceeds a straight internal run; use an elbow bend, slotted vent or 3D folded duct to fit the enclosure.
