Before cutting any holes in the enclosure first determine the placement of the Aeroport. Best results will be derived by placing the woofer and port on the same side of the enclosure. To maintain proper tuning and noise free operation, the Aeroport should be positioned to allow the flange at least one port diameter clearance from the back and side walls. For instance, if you were using a 4" diameter port, keep it 4" from the bottom of the enclosure and 4" from the enclosure walls.

When gluing the end flanges to the main tube, use a good, quick drying epoxy cement. Carefully apply a 1/2" bead on the end of the port then twist the end piece on until seated properly.

To flush mount the 3" Aeroport, cut out a 4-5/16" diameter hole and a 5-9/16" diameter hole for the 4" Aeroport and cut a 9" diameter hole of the 6" Aeroport. After the holes have been cut, use a 1/2" roundover router bit to accommodate the curve needed for the end flange.

When mounting the Aeroport to the enclosure, apply the quick drying epoxy cement to the mounting surface and use silicone caulk or fiber- glass compound on the inside of the enclosure to secure the port to the wood.
