A major design challenge when building a vented speaker enclosure is the
turbulence generated by the air moving through the port. The air move-
ment causes harmonic distortion as well as a whistling noise from the port.
The Aeroport was designed to reduce this effect. Inspired by the bell on a
brass instrument, the flanges on the ends of the Aeroport reduce the air
friction and distortion inherent in the operation of a conventional tube.
This manual provides information on the features, installation and
operation of the Aeroport. We recommend you keep this manual for
future reference.
We strongly recommend you have your Authorized Rockford Fosgate
Dealer install your new Aeroport; however, if you choose to do the
installation yourself, please be sure to read the entire manual before
beginning. When installing this product, please use the proper safety
precautions while using power tools or flammable materials.
