andale927 Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 more port doesnt mean louder im going to have to disagree Most db you will gain ported vs sealed is 3db. Only thing more port will do is get you closer to 3db. I.E. 6in port 2.7db gain 12in 2.9db gain (just an example) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lbox88 Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 LOL, SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much fantastic noob-butthurt-dumbshit-pissing match- bullshit in this thread. I feel sorry for the op.

No I said that a ported box will gain a max of 3db over a sealed box You are allowing the rear wave escape to improve efficiency and maximum gain is 3db Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andale927 Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 it is a theoretical 3db. its a theory. I understand that 100% I am using it to say that MAX gain you will get from port is 3db. You are not going to magically gain 100000db from having 20000 square inches of port area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n8ball2013 Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 would you like to bet you cant gain more than 3 dbs?

Jessica Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 are we talking optimal vs optimal, or worst sealed vs best ported? edit. i'm saying in "theory" 4 subs walled and in sealed enclosures are probably going to be louder than 4 subs ported and not walled, in theory. theoretically.

andale927 Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 would you like to bet you cant gain more than 3 dbs? 3db is effectively double the cone area... a huge increase. Yes, I would love seeing a video proving your point. I am not trying to argue but it seems like the science limits it to 3db... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
