  1. But doesn't a sealed enclosure have a much flatter response then ported? Depends on the driver used, and the vented alignment being used with it.
  2. If you can have higher efficiency, with more power output, the only drawback is a larger gross volume, isn't that a worthy compromise? Vented enclosures just add flexibility, removable/adjustable port designs for changing response and efficiency is a great thing. There is nothing wrong with sealed enclosures, but ported enclosures do everything a sealed enclosure does and more, why not use them?
  3. Such high output form a small footprint is worth the dough to most people.

    is the SP4 for ported or sealed boxes?

    I see that Fi recommends ported enclosure sizes for a 15" SP4 from 3^3ft to 5^3ft. What will be the differences between a 3^3ft ported enclosure and a 5^3ft ported enclosure with a single 15" SP4? Tuning freq and power (2k-2.5k) the same. Your options are, high efficiency, low end extension, small enclosure size; pick two. Apply that law to Fi's recommendations and you'll answer your own question.

    What 8" sub would you choose???

    First choice, Soundsplinter rl-i8. Second choice, Sundown SA 8 V.2. But my choices would depend on my goals.

    Fi bl 12

    You just noticed?
  7. Do you have a budget in mind? I did a Rockford Fosgate 200.2 on a 12" DCON with great results.
  8. There are many high quality class D amplifiers, and many terrible class A/B amplifiers.
  9. Do you think it matters?

    Sundown sub to go with PDX-1.1000?

    It will work fine, you have a gain knob for a reason.

    Copper clad aluminum perhaps?

    Need help choosing a subwoofer

    You all get a vacation if you keep this up. If you want to argue, make an Off Topic thread, or take it to PM's. OP: If you want me to clean your thread up, just say the word.

    Flatwound coils are normally aluminum.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    This probably will sound stupid, but I've always wondered: Do people out there even buy winter clothing? Like do you own a good pair of gloves and boots? I was in SoCal 2 weeks ago, it was mid 70's the whole time, everyone wore winter coats, scarves, etc. it is that cold to them, it was hilarious
