[QUOTE="n8skow, post: 8193466, member: 610656"] Larger box would let the woofer reach mechanical efficiency easier (in terms of reaching high xmax with relatively low power), but I would argue the SPL efficiency may or may not actually increase, depending on the frequency the vehicle 'likes' to play. Case in point: A small 60hz burp car is going to be more efficient (as far as SPL per watt) with a small box designed to play ~60hz versus a large musical box designed to play ~40hz on a given amount of power.
