Sealed? Ported? Amp?

It's ported (24x6"...if my feeble memory is correct). The tube is 18" and somewhere near 6'. I've never seen a sealed sonosub but I'm sure they exist. I also have plenty-o-power with an EP2500. I have a pretty decent dedicated HT. I just need to replace some older gear. If I can get by without building a new tube, I'd be happy! I'm not a beginner, I've built quite a few speakers...some fairly complicated. I'm just lazy now and want to re-use my old sonotube. Back in 2001 or 2002, I basically copied this guy's sonosub plan and substituted the Dayton DVC for the Tempest. I also deleted the mounted plate amp. I guess I was lazy then too

You'll gain about 4-5 db over the Dayton 15" DVC. Port air speed will increase to a maximum of 37 m/s at 14 hz.
