Re: SPL's and extension and vents

It doesn't matter if it is DIY or "professionaly designed". Sealed boxes provide the most natural presentation, the least amount of ringing, the most linear power transfer, etc... with all things being equal. Obviously, there is a LOT more math and fine-tuning involved with any type of reflex design, so things can only get worse for those that lack the technical expertise or "intestinal fortitude" to really dig into proper vent alignment. As mentioned elsewhere in this thread, vents are most appropriate where quantity of bass is more important than quality of bass. Sean
