[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 4020636, member: 549629"] Not sure what you are driving at. A larger enclosure will give less of an 'air cushion' behind the cone, making it easier to reach mechanical limits, but it will also affect the frequency response as well. Some subs are designed to give a 'better' response in a smaller enclosure (and thus generally require more power, certainly require more to still perform well in the lowest octaves), so you cannot make any blanket statements about smaller or larger enclosure being superior. Not saying you are, just saying. Sealed systems are pretty simple. If you have an idea what sort of alignment you are wanting, its a simple matter of getting the internal volume correct. Going bigger or smaller, will yield non-expected, and probably unwanted, results. No harm asking questions man. No harm at all.
