[QUOTE="zako, post: 7447113, member: 629735"] Whether a sealed subwoofer can play deep bass with authority entirely depends on the specific subwoofer and box alignment. It's a misconception that sealed boxes don't play deep bass well. I think any decent sub with >12xmax should do it. One good example is RE Audio Subs, specially SE or SE/x series or JBL Power series, but there are many others. Due to cabin gain, a typical midsize car with an average subwoofer in sealed box will have a peak in its bass response at around 40Hz. Playing 30Hz loud should be doable with the right sub/box/amp. And below 30Hz.. well, I am not entirely convinced there is enough music content to be worried about that range. At any rate, a decent sealed sub should have no problems hitting low notes well beyond what's necessary to blend with the front stage. Ported subwoofer results in a flat bass response down to its tuned frequency _outside_ of car, but a heavy, exaggerated response inside of car. [/QUOTE]
