[QUOTE="SlugButter, post: 8753000, member: 678073"] Higher end Home audio setups will use port tunings that are lower than car audio setups. Movie effects, explosions, etc. need that low tuning to get the intense theatre experience. I’m not surprised that the JL doesn’t play loud below its port tuning. A box tuned to 28 hz is much easier to build for a home where box size isn’t as much of a factor as it is in a small car. A sealed box might have better low end extension than a ported box tuned to 33 hz with that JL. Under port tuning, it will drop off significantly. You would sacrifice some output for lower end extension, but I’ve always liked the way JL subs sound sealed over ported, with most of their subs. [/QUOTE]
