[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 1251954, member: 549629"] A speaker's cone moves in and out. As it does this, it emits sound waves from the front of the cone (generally what we see/hear) and from the rear of the cone. For xample, its those rear waves that exit the port in a ported enclosure. Now that we've defined the difference between the front and back waves, my original comment becomes more clear. A speaker in an infinite baffle situation must not allow its front and rear waves in come in contact with each other. To do so would lead to wave interfeance problems (cancellation and reinforcement). Complete seperation of the front and rear waves is one of the very characteristics that define an 'infinite baffle' setup. Compromising this means not having a true IB. Hope that clears it up for you. If not, let me know. To quote someone you hit the quote button at the bottom of their reply, rather than hitting the post reply button at the bottom of the page.
