I don't accept your last illustration as a proper vented enclosure.  It's a muddy mix between a single chamber and dual chamber and I wouldn't count on the port response accuracy.  My opinion is that a multi-driver single chamber enclosure must share airspace other than that which is comprised of port airspace.

That is what I was looking for. I was looking to put the port in the middle but I guess i might just put it in the side like the picture below.

I would just have two seperate chambers but I'm getting some really long port lengths and I don't think i will be able to get it to work that way. Right now I'm getting like 50 inches for both of the ports. I don't like the idea of a single chamber but if that is what I have to do then that's ok.

Why use a slot port?  if you want your port(s) between the drivers, use round ports.

You'll probably run out of box volume before you get enough line. Why not just build it per the plans?
It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

If you must use a slot port and want it in the center, and it needs to be longer than the depth of the enclosure, you could design something like this:

And actually the segment in the middle can be a single wall...

Round ports, of course!  I guess I wasn't thinking outside of the box like DYohn is.    two ports into one - Page 2 - Last Post -- posted image.

Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.

I convinced myself i like my idea of putting the port on the side.
I would use the round ports but they still had to be bent because they were too long. Plus i have plenty of wood and nothing for round ports.
Thanks for your help guys.two ports into one - Page 2 - Last Post -- posted image.
