Re: Sealed vs. Ported Subwoofer Enclosures in Pro Audio

I hope that this is not going off at too much of a tangent, but one of the forum members at Speakerplans seems to advocate designing bass cabinets based on the maximum output response rather than the frequency response.

Here is a link to an example.

What are your opinions about this design approach? It looks plausible, but I have not seen this method used by others. Most other designers go for the traditional maximum extension, naturally flat, response.

Thanks. FC
