I don't think the shape matters much - but placement does.
I always get into my playing position with the instrument I'm modifying and place the port(s) where they are pointing right at my ears (mostly do small/dual ports these days like the one pictured on a Cordoba I owned)
I would guess that if you reduced the size of the "barn door" port on the classical, the overall effect would be improved.
