well ya, off of the same amount of power. i thought i remebered someone talking about people using sealed boxes in an spl application, can you fill me in on why that would be lol. cause i have always thought ported is louder, but why would anyone use sealed for spl??
i may just be talking out of my *** but who knows //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

I know people prefer to use sealed boxes for Bass Race cuse it's suppose to be easier to control.

its easier because it has a flatter response //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I had a 15" Tempest is a 4 cube sealed box in a 95 ext can S-10. It was pretty loud, plus I only had 100 watts going to it. I was told by an adire tech once apon a time, that the smaller a sealed box is the more power it needs, and a large sealed box requires less power. Do not know if it is right, just what I was told. (about 4 years ago)

yes in a bigger box the power handling will decrease. and will take less power to get to full excursion

Eesh, whats with that? Eight 10's only putting up 130? I guess the soft top nature gives it a sort of outdoor effect...but still. Seems rather low.

sealed RL-p 15. 300 watts (at that time). 137 dB on the TL, placed in the kick, driver door open, engine on.

sealed with as many subs as I can afford/fit is what I might do this year
