[QUOTE="bbeljefe, post: 8203530, member: 655960"] You can extend low end response by making a larger sealed box but to be frank, that's only on paper. You've got good subs and if you want audibly lower response from them, a ported enclosure is the way to go. That said, the ported boxes you've heard were probably either prefabs or boxes that were intentionally built for acoustical peaks at a given frequency. A ported box that's designed to be flat won't have the acoustical peaks (boomy) that people typically (and erroneously) attribute to ported enclosures but it will have the low end extension that a prison cell (aka, sealed box) doesn't. ;-) [/QUOTE]
