And "narrow bandwidth". You will not be able to design a bandpass that runs as flat as a sealed box for any sort of passband range that a sealed system is capable of.Properly designed single reflex bandpass boxes are very loud. Louder than ported and almost as accurate as sealed. However, the key words are "properly designed".
Well alot of people build their stereo's just to attract girls, maybe this explains the wide use of ported enclosures. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gifbadpasses as stated are extremly difficult to build correctly but when done are great for SPL and can do well on SQ. single reflex ported are for girls quasi 4th and 6th order are where it's at. hmmm i hope my dad didn't throw those box's away lol.
