[QUOTE="Matador, post: 159398, member: 545527"] "the larger the sealed box is.. the less power the woofer can take before exceeding its mechanical limits (i.e coil bottoming out, suspension locking down rearward.. etc) this is not related to the thermal power handling of the coil (amount of power before damaging the coil) a woofer relies on its suspension, as well as the 'cushion' of air inside the box to keep the cone within limits. the larger the box, and less resistance the volume of air has, and the more the woofer cone will travel with power..." By Loyd He explained to me the disadvantage of having a large box (mechanical power handling i guesS). This is more specific to the ED K's i guess, he told me that if it's more than 1.0 cu feet sealed, this would happen. i dont' get this completely tho (sorry loyd), but can someone explain this? i mean what would happen if the large is too big? i know it would take less power to move it, but wat disadvantages? thanks [/QUOTE]
