I am planning my next sub "upgrade" (coming from captivators its more of a lateral move).
Everyone talks about ported being so much better above tuning but I am just not seeing it in my models.
Using just 600 watts into 4' cu with a linkwitz tranformer from 40-20 and a 1st order hpf at 10hz I am able to get the RSS460-HO to model almost identical to a HT-18 in a much larger box (9'c INTERNAL!) at 17 hz tune AND using nearly twice the power (1100w..)
Am I missing something in my numbers?
EDIT - I realize WinISD is using 2 woofers in that model...
Only 600 watts for 2 woofers??!
If I us it to 3 woofers in 7 cu with 1100w (8ohms 1 side of an inuke) it absolutely KILLS the SI...
I guess this is the trade off? the $$ for the woofers?
