[QUOTE="jdc753, post: 4094162, member: 572078"] I can't give a very technical explaination but more of a basic, hopefully someone can back me up with some more theory. Basically in a sealed application the air inside the box acts as a spring or a shock absorber controlling the travel of the cone. The smaller the volume inside the box the stiffer the spring or shock absorber becomes thus actually requiring more power to maintain the same amount of movement. With a bigger box the spring is "weaker" and so it takes less power to push the cone out of control. [/QUOTE]
