[QUOTE="Old_Slapper, post: 8906658, member: 690458"] The question was whether a higher excursion sub provides more bass. Not deeper and/or cab pressure. Not only am I skilled in building sound systems, I am also skilled in reading. :ROFLMAO:. I'm messin with ya. Deep bass doesn't come from excursion either. It comes from cone size. Yes, I know the box has much to do with it, but you're not going to get a 4" sub to play 25hz very well. Also, pro audio subs will reach the lower frequencies, just like a car sub, but the venue acoustics do not make it easy. Have you ever been to an outdoor EDM concert? those frequencies get down into the 20's. If excursion made louder bass, pro audio subs would have a minimum of 80mm of Xmax. Instead, they use 18" subs with about 8mm of Xmax. The SPL in a car is high due to the sub-to-room ratio. Put the same subwoofer ration in a room, you'll get the same bass. [/QUOTE]
