Yeah, I got to agree with M5 too.

Seems to me that sealed boxes handle low lows better. I might be wrong, but that's just what I've noticed.

Coaxials can be pretty close to components in some cases. I just got really lucky with that. Coaxials can also SUCK. I've had that happen too. I would pick a component system over a coaxial every time.

Its easier to hide than a BIG ASS WALL in your car, which everyone can see and if you get pulled over there is no way in hiding a big ass wall full of woofers if it were illegal (use common sense, I know people do shit that is illegal all the time including me). I'm not sure why, but I laughed really hard at the parts with the BIG ASS WALL.

This is my Theory of what happens. subs have a Fs which is the the free air resonant frequency of the speaker. if a sub has a Fs of 35 hz and you tune your box to 35 hz. the speaker will resonant at that frequency. tuning a box to far below that like 28hz, 25hz or something like that, I might not have the right kind of pressure to keep the speaker from hitting it's Xmech, which is the max mechanical excursion of the speaker. that's why you might hear stories of people say there 1500watt sub blew out on 900watts of power. because the speaker bottomed out and reach it's Xmech because of tuning below Fs. I like this explanation of this. I never knew that, which is another reason why my subs are all in sealed boxes.

Yeah, I was just curious because I was browsing on the DD Audio website and noticed that the Z didn't really have any specs and didn't really even say anything about recommended enclosure volume.

I was just curious about this. I heard about it but I didn't know how you could find the mechanical limit of a woofer.

That has to be the biggest beast of a box I have ever seen. I'm going to watch this one.

I'm going to tune into this one. I like the look of everything so far
