[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8712488, member: 650438"] You are 100% not gonna get what you are looking for with rock and metal and the chest pound with sealed boxes at all. This is coming from a metal user that needs accurate yet brutal double bass pedals. Sealed is garbage for achieving that. You need extremely high SPL capabilities and good damping in your enclosure. Best setup for metal I've heard is two 15s in a 1/4 wave transmission line. Next in line is my 4 18s in a 6th order. Every bass thud is on beat and knocks the air outta your lungs like in a real concert. That requires over 3000 rms at the minimum. 1.5k rms is okay for normal listening but you arent gonna get that chest pound at all especially if you go sealed. You need a solid 145 db on music to get that pound. [/QUOTE]
