[QUOTE="Loren Jones, post: 60108, member: 829"] Re: B&C Sub designs I think only B&C is using Xvar and I personally trust it to be a true reflection of driver ability. Yes their is less content in the sub 40hz range, but Kip did list "booty music" as part of his program material which will have more content down lower. Again, sub design done well requires a lot of knowledge and experience. I don't have that. What I would do with this driver though is probably shoot for an Fb in between the B&C design (32) and Alan's design (42). I would think an Fb in the range of 35-37 would address some of the concerns Alan has about output around 50hz and still offer some extra LF extension. Once I had chosen that then I would use the largest port possible. The proposed ports both have very high velocities that will compromise output at high drive levels. Alan, what would it look like if you modeled Fb of 37 with a port more like 5" by 21"? BTW, I'm not trying to say Alan's design is a bad choice either. [/QUOTE]
