woofer response

The

woofer provides the best performance/box size compromise using a

2.0 cubic foot Vented box. The Sealed box designs drive the -3dB frequency high

but the woofer cone has enough area that it will begin to “pressurize” the

car interior therefore offering strong bass performance.

Infinite Baffle mounting (rear

deck mounting) works well for moderate power levels

watts) due to the

pressurization principle noted above.

A 1.75 cubic foot Single-Vented

box will offer overall performance about

equal to that of a Vented box along with greater power handling (100-200 watts).
But, for many people, the box construction will require above average carpentry skill
