[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 1039314, member: 549629"] Not because they are more complicated, because they are larger. Some SPL rigs acheive comlexity well beyond what it takes to build those non-regular enclosure types. But at some point making the box type different/bigger has less gain than simply adding more cone area and dedicating the extra enclosure space to that (bigger speaker or more speakers). Impedance rise is more complicated in vented systems, as impedance rise is depedanct on cone motion, which in vented systems is very dependant on frequency. But generally speaking a larger box will allow more. Professional SPL competitors know exactly what impedance their driver(s) are at when burping at the appropriate frequency. They also factor their amplification power at this impedance for obvious reasons. Might as well, not like the system will ever play any other note.
