[QUOTE="Electrodynamic, post: 4506052, member: 548723"] That's assuming quite a bit isn't it? So are you saying that all shallow mount subwoofers don't have any decent amount of displacement? If all of them had around 5mm one way, I could see your point. But when talking about sealed enclosures (as the OP asked about), and in particular, small sealed enclosures, you're not going to get a trio of 12's moving any more than 30-40mm total anyway, so you point is moot. If everybody goes around assuming they're going to use the 25mm of one-way linear travel in the subwoofer they bought and they're using a small sealed or small vented enclosure, they should do a little more reasearch because they're not going to. Not to mention the plethora of electrical upgrades needed to supply the extra amplifier(s) necessary to get a subwoofer such as you mentioned to move to its excursion limits. Why pay for the weight and depth if you're never going to use it? ...and I could have sworn I put ft^2 when talking about cargo area...but maybe it was ft^3. Hrm. Let me go take another look...yep, I put ft^2. [/QUOTE]
