A ported type response will require more cone area for the radiators than the subs regardless of throw. You have mechanical loss when using radiators that a port doesn’t have, which can be kinda counteracted by having more radiators cone area than the subs. When I did my 8 with a single 10 inch radiator in a ported box air space, the radiator went over the max 51 mm of xmax. In a sealed box air space that same radiator only had 40 mm xmax. Adding the 2nd 10 radiator in a ported air space design gives me really close to a ported box sound (not quite as loud because of physical mechanical loss, but close), and the radiators move about 32 mm each at tuning. Radiator setups are tricky but I really like the versatility of what can be done with them.</p></blockquote><p></p>
