[QUOTE="quackhead, post: 7785314, member: 573547"] as you said, loading and unloading is just slang for the compression effects cause by the air mass in front or the cone or the air trapped in the box. Like you said. corner loading. or loading a sub close to a wall, or by it sitting on a flat surface even... or, like when a box is too big or too small for a specific sub, it is usually referred to as improper loading...Unloading, is referred to the undesirable effects of loss of compression by the sub box being too far away from the corner, or wall or even in extreme cases, by opening a car door at 155dbs..lol. And inside the box, unloading occurs when the sub loses compression below tuning frequency and begins to act uncontrollably. this can be exaggerated by too big of a port opening, or even port placement in proximity to the sub.....basically they are slang terms used to identify compression characteristics....improper loading can cause the sub to exceed xmax, or the opposite would be VC overheating due to too much compression. Good topic...and hopefully others will chime in and correct me if my ideas are wacked..lol [/QUOTE]
