Anyone know what the dimensions are for the 2 ports/tubes on an LSi7?
I'm rebuilding a pair from spare tweeters and mids.
I'm getting the crossover parts in order, but I haven't found specs for the ports =(
Any info would be greatly appreciated.

I don't think you need to worry about utilizing the arc port as it is tuned to the cabinet resonance.
If you are building your own cabinets, I imagine that would be different.- Not Tom ::::::: Any system can play Diana Krall. Only the best can play Limp Bizkit. -
O.k., front port tames resonance. If all goes well, it won't be an issue [thumbs up]. Thank you for the insight!
I wonder if the rear ports are the same size on the LSifx (as the 7)? I have that as a reference I can disassemble...The Thrifty Setups in Mah House Big thrifty stereo in the basement w/ my custom SDA-1C (built with help from kind forum members) * Beautiful 1966 MCM GE console upgraded w/ Bluetooth, Dual turntable, and Paradigm speakers in family room * Swanky 1980 Realistic system and great TEAC eq with dancing colored lights in the living room * custom 5B on a system for my Dad * Ye Olde college stereo in the garage -
For reference, my LSi7 front ports measure approximately 21.5mm diameter x 156mm long. I can't easily get measurements of the rear power port dimensions.Stan
