[QUOTE="bladebarrier, post: 5280345, member: 603808"] This. The less your woofers have to move the better. Excursion is only about utilizing the least amount of airspace for the maximum output. Larger airspace and cone area is always the optimal choice, over high excursion, high rms, subs. It's also why concert speakers aren't tiny little boxes designed to take stupid amounts of power. If I went to a concert and saw a RE XXX type of sub on stage powered with 3k watts, I'd have to wonder if the sound engineer was dropped on his head as a child. Only in car audio would anyone try to create such an extreme design (mostly for bragging rites). [/QUOTE]
