[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8713347, member: 650438"] Dude... are you just throwing power at them just for the sake of throwing power at subs or are you trying to get loud? because the 1st option just leads to blown subs and weak bass. Getting loud is all in the enclosure and how efficient it is. Sealed enclosures are not efficient at all along with poor heat management as well with no ventilation. They handle power better mostly mechanically but thermally its the same as ported or slightly worse due to no cooling. You can throw half the power to the subs in a properly designed custom ported box and still get way louder with better bandwidth than sealed. [/QUOTE]
