Webra 145 with Greve Pipe

Hi Mike,

That would make the measurement pipe dependent, whereas knowing the 
baffle location allows for comparisons between different pipes.

For example, if you compare the ES-2C140L90 pipe I'm running with the 
ES-2C140S90 you'd find that the baffle is located the same distance 
from the front of the pipe (13.5"), however the ES-2C140L90 is 3.5" 
longer in overall length.  The muffled section behind the baffle on 
the ES-2C140L90 makes up the difference.

The Greve pipe that Piedmont sells has the baffle 5" or 6" further 
back than the ES-2C140L90 which is why it's installed pipe length is 
so much shorter.

Thx, Jerry
