[QUOTE="Volenti, post: 2045213, member: 566487"] The change in resonant frequency (apparent enclosure volume increase) is actually pretty small, on the order of 2-3hz, it's the increased damping that the fill provides that causes the change in the subs sound. The air in the sealed enclosure acts like a spring, when you add fill to the enclosure it acts like the shock absorbers on your car, restricting the movement of the "spring". note; a well built enclosure with no fill can be up to 3db louder than a filled one, just keep that in mind.
