"So to get the same bass output from an OB as a box speaker using the same woofer at 10W you might need 160W"
That is the most common mistake/misconception, you should not be using a woofer designed for a box in a dipole speaker system to produce bass. Use a woofer with a high Qts, which is not really suitable for a box, to offset the dipole roll-off of an OB. You need to think outside the box and throw away the years of box thinking. The resulting SPL will be in the same league as a boxed woofer system, and to head off the next arguement the bass will not be boomy because of a Qts value >= to 1.0 (that again is box thinking).
