[QUOTE="kcr357, post: 8487830, member: 643676"] Right on both points. I think of it as like pulling back a syringe. If you put your thumb over the tip of the syringe, you can't pull the plunger back very far without a lot of resistance. If you were to put the syringe into a cubic foot sealed container and pull back the plunger, no problem. There's a larger volume of air to take up the displaced air from pulling it back. Same with a woofer, more volume=less resistance during excursion. Steve Meade=Nerdy kid with tattoos. [/QUOTE]
