Infinite Baffle, no box. in IB you do not want to let the back wave cancel out the front wave. You wont get as much output like a single sub in a ported or sealed box but its not geared to SPL at all, its all SQ. The easiest way to get louder is adding more drivers in this type of application. I seriously thought about buying a single 15 mag, I still may :P

Shit..lol

Please inform me...wat is iB?

infinite baffle - The infinite baffle is nothing more than a barrier that separates the front of the speaker from the rear of the speaker; this barrier is called a baffle board. A typical infinite-baffle installation in an auto sound system consists of mounting the woofer(s) on the rear deck of the vehicle or on the back of the rear seat. In any infinite-baffle design, it is very important that no path exists for sound to reach from the rear of the speaker to its front. If this happens, cancellation will occur and bass output will be reduced.

An infinite-baffle installation does not use an enclosure, so the mechanical damping is poor, resulting in "hang-over" and lack of definition. The power handling of the speaker will also be compromised since the infinite baffle provides very little control over cone excursion.

So you control the sub by the power given to it in relation to the size of enclosure/airspace behind speaker

Best when used in home theatre when you can use an attic/closet/adjacent room as the "enclosure"

it allows for the reproduction of notes down to 10Hz at times, usually 20Hz with surprising db's
