[QUOTE="thch, post: 4719346, member: 562032"] the simple delay explanation is mostly inaccurate. for instance, it doesn't really explain why excursion is reduced, nor why the system would be able to output +10dB over a sealed box. But otherwise the passive radiator does act as a resonator that does get excited by the woofer, in much the same manner as a ported box. a passive radiator, unlike a port, must move to make sound. while a port has issues with turbulance, a passive radiator has issues with overexcursion.
