[QUOTE="bigred78797, post: 316692, member: 545232"] Answers: 1. Yes you can still hit those high notes, maybe just a decrease in volume in the higher region but the notes that get people to turn the heads ( in my opinion ) are the low notes. 2. Correct sealed boxes are not "tuned" to a specific hz 3. Generally you want to avoid that because that my cause some cancellation and make you music spikey ( it'll play some notes LOUD and some notes SOFT ) 4. That is ok if you have the same total clearance around the exit area at the bottom as you do cone area. 5. Personally i believe it takes away from some of the volume because it is blocking some of the front wave... unless the area that the subs area facing is really rigid. 6. Sealed enclosures don't hit the low notes as well as the ported enclosures becuase the back wave is not there to reinforce the front wave. With 4 15" in either case you will be able to hit low notes but the ported will give you a significant gain in that department. 7. Like i said before ported enclosures can hit high notes, maybe not quite as clear ( if not tuned to play high ) as a sealed but it will play them. Any More questions... or if anybody sees if i wrote something wrong just correct me. [/QUOTE]
