Posted April 25, 201114 yr Right now i have just a hair over 3 cubes to work with for 3 187 10's.... i have done them in this amount of volume ported and wasnt real happy with low end. has anyone had experience with these sealed?
April 25, 201114 yr You will lose low end by going sealed. What were you tuned at and how much port area did you have?

April 25, 201114 yr And you must be firm with these people.Don't make their problem become your problem.Tell them how it is-If you want more low end, they need to lose a sub.Tell him to sell it, use it for something else, etc...You could add polyfill to the ported box but i can tell u that the most audible thing that's going to do is just absorb the higher end making it "appear" their is little more low end.You're not a magician. If we could all run the smallest boxes possible and get the best output below 30hz would we all be geniuses.
