VENTED: Advantages
1. Gain 3-6dB of output over sealed. Or roughly
the equivalent of having a 500 watt amp “act” like its
2,000 watts. Enclosure is giving you FREE energy
2. Better transient response.
3. Less current draw becasue you can utilize a smaller
amplifier.
VENTED: Disadvantages
1. Much harder to design and build. Really need a
modeling program to do that. We recommend
WinISDPro. Which is FREE go to this URL:

2. Typically about double the size of a
sealed enclosure. But still relatively small
in the scheme of things.
3. If you design the box incorrectly (in other words
mistune it) for example tune below Fs of driver
{highly discourged}) it can damage the woofer
VENTED
TYPICAL RECOMMENDED TUNING FREQUENCIES
For 4 door sedans 34-38 Hz
For longer vehicles (SUV’s ,Vans, etc) typically 30-36Hz
PRE-FAB? OR ..NOT TO PRE-FAB???
These can be “OK”. BUT...the secret is dont get one that is tuned TOO high.
Many of these prefab enclosures are tuned to 40 Hz. For most “mature adults
this tends to be too high and give you what is called ”1 note Bass” . Be careful!!
Typically no one complains to their retailer/installer that they got TOO MUCH BASS! Everyone
complains about not getting enough!!! So lets FIX that!
- Design and build better subwoofer enclosures-
