[QUOTE="cotjones, post: 3422449, member: 573988"] again porting is different, i ment sub for sub, and enclosure for enclosure the biggerr sub is better... so 1 10 of a series ported will do better than an 8 of the same series ported... but keep in mind we aren't talking about 10's vs 12's we are talking bout 8's vs 10's picture porting 1000 tweeters for your bass... your still not gunna have any... but while 8's ported can produce significant low bass, 8's sealed generally have a harder time... 8's are more suited to play loudly in the mid-bass range... because at a low frequency say 25 er 30 hz... displacement is what translated into output... it's not hard for a 8 to get loud in the higher frequencies because the cone is moving air many more times per second... on the contrary, its very hard for a 12 er 15 to play loudly in higher frequencies due to cone mass and many other factors... in other words... if you have 8's struggling with the lows even if you have 50 of them... they are 50 struggling with the lows [/QUOTE]
