SPL = Sond Pressure Level
SQ = Sound Quality
and to my knowledge. and how much i know (which isn't much) if you want SPL over SQ then choose a Ported/Vented enclosure.. if you want SQ over SPL then choose a sealed enclosure..
maybe i helped a tad

he started explaining it, but please provide a specific place where you need clarification.
the strict definition of SPL is sound pressure level, but it's used in a lot of places where it can be an absolute, relative, description, project goal, etc...

well i have a 12" audiobahn alum12Q subwoofer that can handle 1000watts RMS powered by an 800 watt mtx thunder 801D
overall some nice components
i'm trying to figure out what sized and tuned vented enclosure i want. i was thinking 2.5 cft. tuned to 37hz but i want something cleaaaaan but that still booms.

37hz port tuning sure as hell wont be cleaaaaan. Youd be lucky if it was clean with those subs sealed 
IF you want a good sounding ported setup, tune it lower. 27-32hz range. It will still boom. Audiobahn isnt exactly known for SQ, but I must admit they look pretty cool.

Im not 100% if that xmax really was 48mm, I know he said it was in the mid-upper 40's somewere but its definetly in that range
I dont know how the hell I could get that thing im my trunk though
The B15 I got is about the same size of that XXX15 sitting next to it.

yeah....I saw that sub a few days ago....would def like to see more final specs on it though....It is simply amazing how the Brahma and XXX are enormous in their own right....then this monster nearly doubles them in size - I believe the sub itself is ~65lbs

or flat and fire it straight up? All I know is thats goona be loud as hell. I was actually thinking about it and even if the cost is sane (700-800is im guessing, yes thats sane) I probably still wouldnt get it. Not for the max anyway, the Brahma alone is already too much Im just getting greedy. If I want more, ill just drop it to 1ohm and triple the power but still there is no need. Maxima Dan: Sealed!?!?! for that thing? Well sealed would fit in the max, but ported is a big hell no. That thing is gonna require atleast 6ft^3 to work with a ported setup sucking over 2Kw, so even if it does fit, its gonna have to be front fired and there will be no trunk left...like I have a trunk left
Trunk 1 Trunk 2
