[QUOTE="SounDrive, post: 8192704, member: 653833"] Couldn't have said it better myself. Everyone has this stigma that "ported digs lower than sealed" but they don't realize that low for me is 20-25hz... My music rarely ever includes bass notes over 45hz. If you want that kind of response from a ported box, you have to either tune stupid low (this is where PRs come in handy) or as you said, have an extremely large box that reduces the mechanical power handling of your subs. The above is exactly why I'm likely going with a 4th order for my next build [COLOR=Silver] [/COLOR] [COLOR=Silver][SIZE=8px]---------- Post added at 03:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:49 PM ----------[/SIZE][/COLOR][SIZE=8px][/SIZE] [COLOR=Silver] [/COLOR] 4th order bass reflex = "ported" 4th order bandpass = "4th order" [/QUOTE]
