[QUOTE="bass_lover1, post: 2853751, member: 555256"] I hope you aren't serious? Anywho, a passive radiator is similar to a subwoofer except it has no motor structure, just the suspension, cone, basket, blah blah. It works similarly to a subwoofer except it receives no electrical signal of any sorts, but it uses the pressure that the subwoofer creates inside the box to resonate, a lot of companies will add mass to the structure to change the characteristics of the PR. It's very similar to a port, but you can save space because the PR will usually be tuned to a specific resonant frequency and thus your box will comparatively be smaller, and give you similar output.
