are you reffering to infinite baffle/closed box or more something like Naim's NBL (nested box loudspeaker)..
If you are serious about this, do it right. First, you need to know a lot more about speaker design than you do
now. Get Dickason's Loudspeaker Cookbook which is the DIYer bible. All the equations you need are in this
book. -I have too agree on this..
And keep in mind that is prefectly possible to do everything right (equation wise) and still end up with something mediocre..some things seem to defy measurements (well we are just not measuring the correct parameter probably)
I have heard some designs using all top of the line Scanspeak and X-over parts which sounded pretty awfull nonetheless.and the other way around too, for instance the Wilson Audio's use very common drivers but sound good.
