It will just act like a sealed box with the same amount of airspace. No real difference except it will be harder to make.

your best bet for making a bass tube is to use schedule 80 pvc but 10'' pvc is not going to be expensive. and you most likely wont be able to buy it in anything under a 5 or 10' section. but that may be looking something to look into.

I think it just takes up too much room. A cube box is going to make better use of available space.

you also may find some quicktube, i think it's called. it's basically a concrete paper former. there is the thin stuff you can buy, but there is also some pretty thick stuff. one of the first "enclosures" i experimented with was a 12"...... i layed it flat on the floor covering the open end, and tilted it in increments, and it actually put out some decent response. quite similar to the os bazuka tubes. i also have a sealed one stuffed in the back of my garage, but it really then, is just another sealed enclosure, and nothing special, other than it's universal toss-'n-go appeal. and, as stated, actually takes a bit more space, since it's not using a lot of space that a squared box can, in the same place.......
