Gold Member Username: Extrmndor3IF U HEAR ME... crazydbs.com Post Number: 5309 Registered: Feb-06 | high frequency extension is not like high frequency peaks or loudness if your thinking of that. is kind of like an extension in other words very large flat response or very flat frequency extension avoiding any peaks cause harmonic distortion |

Silver Member Username: Dakangofkrunk16Post Number: 367 Registered: May-07 | I,ve had a Bandpass, ported, and sealed Bandpass - Ported in the back and closed in the front...It got pretty loud, but sounded not good at all..It also looked the coolest to be honest, had neons in it and all...But SQ was horriable Sealed - Most Excursion came from this and SQ was pretty good..But not many subs like sealed enclosures, it seemed to sound better and louder when you would load the subs facing In...I had it at one point one in the other out (no hommo)..Wich this got the loudest out of all the ways i liked this one, but the box kept tipping over Ported - the boc was ported two 40 hz...This one was my all time favorite, it got nice and loud and it sounded really good...It was ported on the side, round port that is, ports are good cause you get both the front and back sound from the sub excursioning in and out (no Hommo) For SPL...The bandpass or the Ported For SQ... The Sealed, well depends on subs, some far better with a Ported enclosure more than a sealed one |

That's all I was saying lol. Steve Meade has something to do with this, I'm just not sure what! |
Silver Member Username: MesodummTri-City, Az Usa Post Number: 139 Registered: Apr-07 | Good Question! I have had numerous boxes, I like Ported myself they sounds the pretty good all around. SPL was awesome out of a I had it loaded with 2 15 1000watt JBL subs. in the bed of a nissan pickup it only had my 250hcca on it at 2 ohm, so maybe 150 per sub and it kick azz, can't imagine 1000 per sub!!! Serious kidney damage!!! I had 3 ss12 infinite baffle I competed with those for over 3 years, other than trading them out 3 times, I love employee discount!!! I have to go but will write more when get home. Keep thread going I want to hear what ppl think! |
