[QUOTE="trumpet, post: 8146329, member: 628688"] The most basic way to look at this is how much air is being moved. To make a smaller cone move the same amount of air you have to have throw and acceleration. Your 15" subwoofer can play 100 Hz loudly with ease because it barely needs to move. Try to get that same output from a 6.5" woofer and it has to move a lot farther. Then you fight panel vibrations, cancellation, and on and on. Now you're into the game of choosing your compromises.
