Here are reviews from hams that own this speaker: http://www.eham.net/reviews/detail/2754 I don't know if I would trust that speaker to "sound sweet", it is a "tuned port, bass reflex speaker", and those tend to have a peaky resonant bass, not a sweet bass sound. They probably used the "tuned port, bass reflex" because the box would have had to be larger than their target size otherwise. A properly tunned box will sound pretty good and not boom. The decision of ported vs open or closed depends greatly on the driver itself, dictating which enclosure is best suited for itself. Higher Qts is a closed box, and higher still is open box. Lower Q must be ported to get the bass back from the higher damping. The box no doubt goes too low. You need a roll off above 50 Hz. A larger computer system also goes too low. grge |
