[QUOTE="Gatorade, post: 8734199, member: 674223"] Everybody keeps telling me I'm crazy for thinking about going sealed for a 3.5k daily. They say I can accomplish the same sq and full range of bass with a ported enclosure. So what frequency range would I need to get my box built to in order to mimic the sq that a sealed box provides? This is a legit question, I'm not trying to start an argument, or be a smart ***. I really don't need that much rms. I'm building for 3.5k but I'll never touch that much power. I figured if I reached for that type of rms, then it would sound very clear at 1.5k. lol. That logic might be flawed, but I've had 1k setups in the past that sounded great turned half way up, but beyond that the bass got muddy and distorted. So, if I have 3k it will sound good at 1.5k, distortion wise, right? [/QUOTE]
