Yes it has three ports, the basic design called for it. I found it on that speakerplans.com website linked above.
The box is 13-ply birchwood as all of my speaker cabinets are made of it.
Elaborate on isolating the frame of the speaker from the box..not quite following you.
I'll have it apart today when I get home from work to do some more sealing work on it.
There were some design changes for ease-of-access that have compromised the air seal between the back panels and upper chamber..so I've gotta work on that. I'm also going to switch to a t-nut system for the back panel. Should work MUCH better than the drywall screws..just as long as i dont strip the stupid things out.
