Sundownman1212 Posted June 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2014 yes will be loud and sound very well Compared to 2 18s? WE won't know that and that is stepping into vs. territory. As for being low, sealed boxes tend to have a larger bandwidth than ported boxes. What does a larger or smaller bandwidth do?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for being low, sealed boxes tend to have a larger bandwidth than ported boxes. Larger bandwidth yes, depending on where the ported is tuned. Typically not with the same authority in the lower registers. OP, why sealed? You might like 3-4 in a ported better. And don't know why you're comparing 6 8's to 2 18's, that's a huge box size difference. "Clipping" is the biggest forum boner now. It's like witchcraft... it automatically explains just about everything people don't understand.

I could see an average 6 8's box being 5-6 gross, and the 2 18's needing double that net. "Clipping" is the biggest forum boner now.
