a high-Fs motor. It resonates at 36.2 Hz in free air, which is well above where most twelves sit, and that single number decides the whole build: there is no point tuning a cabinet far below the frequency at which the driver stops wanting to move. So this one is vented at 35.0 Hz, just under Fs, and the result is the flattest passband of any enclosure in the ported range - 0.80 dB of ripple, where the rest of the family runs 1.1 to 4.4.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eProdigy quote an EBP of 58.6, which lands in the transition band where a driver will take either load. That is not a reason to default to sealed. Vented at 35 the NB3-12 gives up nothing in flatness and gains real output through 30 to 45 Hz, and because tuning sits close to Fs the cone is barely moving where the port is working hardest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe port is the product\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA ported cabinet is easy to get wrong and the failure is audible. This one uses an\n  L-wrap slot port: a single folded wall running down the long side of the box past the\n  woofer ring, turning once through a faceted 90 degree bend, and opening through a\n  chamfered corner. One wall, one bend, 27.86 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is 3.50 inches wide by 6.25 tall, 21.9 square inches, and it exits\n  through a 30.9 square inch mouth. Air leaves at 15.2 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build. It does not go in this one. Damping material in a vented box\n    changes the effective volume the port is tuned against, which moves the tuning\n    frequency away from the 35.0 Hz the port length was cut for. Adding it does not make\n    a ported box sound like a bigger ported box; it makes it a mistuned one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRun a subsonic filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is not optional advice on a vented enclosure. Below tuning the port stops\n  loading the cone and excursion climbs without limit toward DC, so a 28 Hz high-pass at\n  24 dB per octave is part of the specification rather than a refinement of it. Set it\n  and the same cabinet takes substantially more power for the same cone travel. Leave it\n  out and the driver runs out of suspension on material you cannot hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eEvery wattage on the Performance Graphs tab is a mechanical limit, not an electrical\n  one: it is the power at which the cone reaches the end of its linear travel in this\n  box. What the voice coil can dissipate as heat is a separate ceiling set by Prodigy, not by\n  the cabinet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eCut for this driver, not for a catalogue\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-grid\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"df-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMounting\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCut to Prodigy's published 10.875 inch cutout with a\n    13.250 inch ring bonded under the baffle.

D4 has an EBP of 40.2, which by the usual reading puts it in sealed territory. It is here anyway, and the reason is the port: 4.25 inches wide by 6.25 tall, 25.0 square inches of channel, the largest in the ported line. A high-Qts driver in a vented box needs the vent to do more of the work, and that means area rather than length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eQts 0.74 is high enough that a small or restrictive port would produce a peaky, underdamped result. Given 1.48 cubic feet and 25.0 square inches at 35.0 Hz it does not: the channel runs at 28 percent of its turbulence limit, the calmest in the ported line, and the mouth sees 9.2 metres per second where the threshold is 17. There is no condition in normal use where this port makes a sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe port is the product\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA ported cabinet is easy to get wrong and the failure is audible. This one uses an\n  L-wrap slot port: a single folded wall running down the long side of the box past the\n  woofer ring, turning once through a faceted 90 degree bend, and opening through a\n  chamfered corner. One wall, one bend, 29.01 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is 4.00 inches wide by 6.25 tall, 25.0 square inches, and it exits\n  through a 30.9 square inch mouth. Air leaves at 9.2 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build. It does not go in this one. Damping material in a vented box\n    changes the effective volume the port is tuned against, which moves the tuning\n    frequency away from the 35.0 Hz the port length was cut for. Adding it does not make\n    a ported box sound like a bigger ported box; it makes it a mistuned one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRun a subsonic filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is not optional advice on a vented enclosure. Below tuning the port stops\n  loading the cone and excursion climbs without limit toward DC, so a 28 Hz high-pass at\n  24 dB per octave is part of the specification rather than a refinement of it. Set it\n  and the same cabinet takes substantially more power for the same cone travel.

is the least likely ported build in the range. The IDQ10 has the highest Fs in the set at 42.0 Hz and the highest Qts at 0.797, and an EBP of 42.3 that says sealed as plainly as a number can. What it also has is a very easy job to do: 250 watts through 24.3 litres of Vas asks almost nothing of a port.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe result is the least loaded port we build: a 25.0 square inch channelrunning at 28 percent of its turbulence limit, the lowest figure in therange, with 12.2 metres per second at the mouth against a 17 threshold. There is no condition in normal use where this port makes a sound of its own. Tuned to 35.5 Hz it reaches an F3 of 33.3 Hz with 2.0 dB of in-car spread.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe port is the product\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA ported cabinet is easy to get wrong and the failure is audible. This one uses an\n  L-wrap slot port: a single folded wall running down the long side of the box past the\n  woofer ring, turning once through a faceted 90 degree bend, and opening through a\n  chamfered corner. One wall, one bend, 29.01 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is 4.00 inches wide by 6.25 tall, 25.0 square inches, and it exits\n  through a 22.1 square inch mouth. Air leaves at 12.2 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build. It does not go in this one. Damping material in a vented box\n    changes the effective volume the port is tuned against, which moves the tuning\n    frequency away from the 35.5 Hz the port length was cut for. Adding it does not make\n    a ported box sound like a bigger ported box; it makes it a mistuned one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRun a subsonic filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is not optional advice on a vented enclosure. Below tuning the port stops\n  loading the cone and excursion climbs without limit toward DC, so a 28 Hz high-pass at\n  24 dB per octave is part of the specification rather than a refinement of it. Set it\n  and the same cabinet takes substantially more power for the same cone travel. Leave it\n  out and the driver runs out of suspension on material you cannot hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eEvery wattage on the Performance Graphs tab is a mechanical limit, not an electrical\n  one: it is the power at which the cone reaches the end of its linear travel in this\n  box. What the voice coil can dissipate as heat is a separate ceiling set by Image Dynamics, not by\n  the cabinet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eCut for this driver, not for a catalogue\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-grid\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"df-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMounting\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCut to Image Dynamics's published 9.570 inch cutout with a\n    12.000 inch ring bonded under the baffle.

this driver is vented at 34.5 Hz\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe 12TW3 is JL's thin-line twelve: 3.5 inches of mounting depth, built for installations where a conventional motor will not physically go. Shallow drivers usually give something up for that, and the usual sacrifice is low-end reach. This one does not make it. Fs 26.46 Hz and 48.7 litres of Vas is a full-depth driver's alignment set in a chassis that fits under a seat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eTuned to 34.5 Hz in 1.52 cubic feet it reaches an anechoic F3 of 30.5 Hz, the second deepest twelve in the ported line, behind only the WavtechthinPRO.

This one uses an\n  L-wrap slot port: a single folded wall running down the long side of the box past the\n  woofer ring, turning once through a faceted 90 degree bend, and opening through a\n  chamfered corner.

Air leaves at 16.7 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build.

This one uses an\n  L-wrap slot port: a single folded wall running down the long side of the box past the\n  woofer ring, turning once through a faceted 90 degree bend, and opening through a\n  chamfered corner. One wall, one bend, 27.70 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is 3.75 inches wide by 6.25 tall, 23.4 square inches, and it exits\n  through a 30.9 square inch mouth. Air leaves at 16.9 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build. It does not go in this one. Damping material in a vented box\n    changes the effective volume the port is tuned against, which moves the tuning\n    frequency away from the 34.5 Hz the port length was cut for. Adding it does not make\n    a ported box sound like a bigger ported box; it makes it a mistuned one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRun a subsonic filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is not optional advice on a vented enclosure. Below tuning the port stops\n  loading the cone and excursion climbs without limit toward DC, so a 27 Hz high-pass at\n  24 dB per octave is part of the specification rather than a refinement of it. Set it\n  and the same cabinet takes substantially more power for the same cone travel.

drivers are usually where a ported build stops making sense: too little cone area to move the air, too little compliance to tune low. The ID8 V4 is the exception because of one number. It resonates at 31 Hz free-air, which is lower than most twelves manage, and a motor that reaches that far down can be vented properly rather than as a gesture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eTuned to 34.0 Hz in 1.04 cubic feet it reaches an anechoic F3 of 30.2 Hz. That is deeper than three of the twelve inch cabinets in this same range, from a driver with less than half their cone area. It is also the smallest box we build ported, at 12.50 inches of external depth, which is the whole reason to want an eight in the first place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe port is the product\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA ported cabinet is easy to get wrong and the failure is audible. This one uses an\n  L-wrap slot port: a single folded wall running down the long side of the box past the\n  woofer ring, turning once through a faceted 90 degree bend, and opening through a\n  chamfered corner. One wall, one bend, 27.82 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is 2.50 inches wide by 6.25 tall, 15.6 square inches, and it exits\n  through a 17.7 square inch mouth. Air leaves at 10.8 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build. It does not go in this one. Damping material in a vented box\n    changes the effective volume the port is tuned against, which moves the tuning\n    frequency away from the 34.0 Hz the port length was cut for. Adding it does not make\n    a ported box sound like a bigger ported box; it makes it a mistuned one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRun a subsonic filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is not optional advice on a vented enclosure. Below tuning the port stops\n  loading the cone and excursion climbs without limit toward DC, so a 27 Hz high-pass at\n  24 dB per octave is part of the specification rather than a refinement of it. Set it\n  and the same cabinet takes substantially more power for the same cone travel. Leave it\n  out and the driver runs out of suspension on material you cannot hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eEvery wattage on the Performance Graphs tab is a mechanical limit, not an electrical\n  one: it is the power at which the cone reaches the end of its linear travel in this\n  box. What the voice coil can dissipate as heat is a separate ceiling set by Image Dynamics, not by\n  the cabinet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eCut for this driver, not for a catalogue\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-grid\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"df-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMounting\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCut to Image Dynamics's published 7.087 inch cutout with a\n    9.250 inch ring bonded under the baffle.

That is not a marketing number: it is the solver own objective, measured the same way on every enclosure we build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eIt happens because the driver and the cabin want the same thing. A 32 Hz motor with a 0.73 Qts and 37 litres of compliance, vented at 33.0 Hz into 1.41 cubic feet, produces a response whose natural rise sits exactly where a car own gain starts falling away. Nothing is being corrected or compensated.

6.7 litres of Vas. Only its own shallow-mount sibling comes near that; every other driver in this programme is at least twice as compliant. A figure that small describes a suspension stiff enough that the cabinet barely participates in the alignment at all, and a driver like that is very hard to get wrong on airspace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eWhen the box has little say in the result there is very little for the box to get wrong, so the port can be sized for the airflow rather than as a compromise against volume. Tuned to 33.0 Hz it reaches an anechoic F3 of 28.2 Hz from a 214 square centimetre cone. That is deeper than every twelve inch cabinet in this range, and 1.09 dB of passband ripple is the second flattest curve we have measured, behind only the Prodigy NB3-12.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe port is the product\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA ported cabinet is easy to get wrong and the failure is audible. This one uses an\n  L-wrap slot port: a single folded wall running down the long side of the box past the\n  woofer ring, turning once through a faceted 90 degree bend, and opening through a\n  chamfered corner. One wall, one bend, 27.95 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is 2.25 inches wide by 6.25 tall, 14.1 square inches, and it exits\n  through a 17.7 square inch mouth. Air leaves at 10.6 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build. It does not go in this one. Damping material in a vented box\n    changes the effective volume the port is tuned against, which moves the tuning\n    frequency away from the 33.0 Hz the port length was cut for. Adding it does not make\n    a ported box sound like a bigger ported box; it makes it a mistuned one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRun a subsonic filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is not optional advice on a vented enclosure. Below tuning the port stops\n  loading the cone and excursion climbs without limit toward DC, so a 26 Hz high-pass at\n  24 dB per octave is part of the specification rather than a refinement of it. Set it\n  and the same cabinet takes substantially more power for the same cone travel. Leave it\n  out and the driver runs out of suspension on material you cannot hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eEvery wattage on the Performance Graphs tab is a mechanical limit, not an electrical\n  one: it is the power at which the cone reaches the end of its linear travel in this\n  box. What the voice coil can dissipate as heat is a separate ceiling set by Image Dynamics, not by\n  the cabinet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eCut for this driver, not for a catalogue\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-grid\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"df-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMounting\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCut to Image Dynamics's published 7.299 inch cutout with a\n    9.250 inch ring bonded under the baffle.

mounts in 3.504 inches and reaches an anechoic F3 of 29.7 Hz in this cabinet. Shallow-mount drivers are usually sold on fitment alone, with the low end treated as the price you pay for it. That is not the trade here: this reaches deeper than every twelve inch Image Dynamics driver we build a ported box for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eIt works because the alignment is doing what the motor cannot. A 50 Hz free-air resonance and a 1.02 Qts describe a driver with no natural low end at all, and 1.43 cubic feet vented at 34.5 Hz builds one. The port is 23.4 square inches running at 33 percent of its turbulence limit, so nothing is being forced to get there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe port is the product\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA ported cabinet is easy to get wrong and the failure is audible. This one uses an\n  L-wrap slot port: a single folded wall running down the long side of the box past the\n  woofer ring, turning once through a faceted 90 degree bend, and opening through a\n  chamfered corner. One wall, one bend, 29.14 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is 3.75 inches wide by 6.25 tall, 23.4 square inches, and it exits\n  through a 30.9 square inch mouth. Air leaves at 9.0 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build. It does not go in this one. Damping material in a vented box\n    changes the effective volume the port is tuned against, which moves the tuning\n    frequency away from the 34.5 Hz the port length was cut for. Adding it does not make\n    a ported box sound like a bigger ported box; it makes it a mistuned one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRun a subsonic filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is not optional advice on a vented enclosure.

mounts in 3.504 inches, the same as its ten inch sibling, but carries 523 square centimetres of cone. More area moving the same 7.5 mm means more displacement out of a chassis that fits the same places, and it is the reason to choose this over the IDQS10 wherever the footprint allows it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe extra cone gets a wider channel to work through: 25.0 square inches, the largest port we cut and shared only with the two IDQ builds, running at 31 percent of its turbulence limit. That is the lowest loading of the three shallow cabinets. In the car it produces 2.6 dB of spread across 25 to 60 Hz, comfortably the flattest result the shallow series manages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe port is the product\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA ported cabinet is easy to get wrong and the failure is audible. This one uses an\n  L-wrap slot port: a single folded wall running down the long side of the box past the\n  woofer ring, turning once through a faceted 90 degree bend, and opening through a\n  chamfered corner. One wall, one bend, 27.03 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is 4.00 inches wide by 6.25 tall, 25.0 square inches, and it exits\n  through a 22.1 square inch mouth. Air leaves at 13.5 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build. It does not go in this one. Damping material in a vented box\n    changes the effective volume the port is tuned against, which moves the tuning\n    frequency away from the 36.0 Hz the port length was cut for. Adding it does not make\n    a ported box sound like a bigger ported box; it makes it a mistuned one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRun a subsonic filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is not optional advice on a vented enclosure. Below tuning the port stops\n  loading the cone and excursion climbs without limit toward DC, so a 28 Hz high-pass at\n  24 dB per octave is part of the specification rather than a refinement of it. Set it\n  and the same cabinet takes substantially more power for the same cone travel. Leave it\n  out and the driver runs out of suspension on material you cannot hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eEvery wattage on the Performance Graphs tab is a mechanical limit, not an electrical\n  one: it is the power at which the cone reaches the end of its linear travel in this\n  box.

this driver is vented at 33.0 Hz\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis cabinet reaches an anechoic F3 of 27.8 Hz.

It comes from an eight inch cone in 1.08 cubic feet, and it is the whole reason the product exists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eTwo things make it possible. The NB2-8 has 6.96 litres of Vas, so the suspension is stiff enough that the box barely participates in the alignment and the port can be sized for the job rather than as a compromise. And a 0.448 Qts is low enough to vent hard. Tuned to 33.0 Hz in a 13.50 inch cabinet, that combination puts the half-power point below every other cabinet in this line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe port is the product\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA ported cabinet is easy to get wrong and the failure is audible.

Only the Prodigy NB3-12 is flatter, and that is a twelve. For an eight inch driver in a vented box, which is the alignment most likely to produce a hump at tuning, that is an unusually clean result.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eIt comes from a driver that is easy to load. The 8W1v3 has a 0.42 Qts and 19.3 litres of Vas, which is a well-damped motor with enough compliance that the cabinet does not have to fight it. Tuned to 34.0 Hz in 1.09 cubic feet the alignment falls out without being forced, and the port runs at 37 percent of its turbulence limit with 11.8 metres per second at the mouth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe port is the product\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA ported cabinet is easy to get wrong and the failure is audible. This one uses an\n  L-wrap slot port: a single folded wall running down the long side of the box past the\n  woofer ring, turning once through a faceted 90 degree bend, and opening through a\n  chamfered corner. One wall, one bend, 26.76 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is 2.50 inches wide by 6.25 tall, 15.6 square inches, and it exits\n  through a 17.7 square inch mouth. Air leaves at 11.8 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build. It does not go in this one. Damping material in a vented box\n    changes the effective volume the port is tuned against, which moves the tuning\n    frequency away from the 34.0 Hz the port length was cut for. Adding it does not make\n    a ported box sound like a bigger ported box; it makes it a mistuned one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRun a subsonic filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is not optional advice on a vented enclosure. Below tuning the port stops\n  loading the cone and excursion climbs without limit toward DC, so a 27 Hz high-pass at\n  24 dB per octave is part of the specification rather than a refinement of it. Set it\n  and the same cabinet takes substantially more power for the same cone travel. Leave it\n  out and the driver runs out of suspension on material you cannot hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eEvery wattage on the Performance Graphs tab is a mechanical limit, not an electrical\n  one: it is the power at which the cone reaches the end of its linear travel in this\n  box.

sits between the W1v3 and the W7AE in JL's eight inch range, and the gap is bigger than the model numbers suggest. It takes 250 watts against the W1v3's 150 and moves 10 mm one way against its 8. That is two thirds more power and a quarter more travel from a driver only 0.79 inches deeper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA 0.47 Qts and 15.3 litres of Vas is a slightly stiffer, more controlled motor than its smaller sibling, and it wants a similar cabinet: 1.07 cubic feet vented at 34.0 Hz reaches an anechoic F3 of 29.2 Hz, a full hertz deeper than the W1v3 in the same footprint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe port is the product\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA ported cabinet is easy to get wrong and the failure is audible. This one uses an\n  L-wrap slot port: a single folded wall running down the long side of the box past the\n  woofer ring, turning once through a faceted 90 degree bend, and opening through a\n  chamfered corner. One wall, one bend, 27.12 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is 2.50 inches wide by 6.25 tall, 15.6 square inches, and it exits\n  through a 17.7 square inch mouth. Air leaves at 15.5 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build. It does not go in this one. Damping material in a vented box\n    changes the effective volume the port is tuned against, which moves the tuning\n    frequency away from the 34.0 Hz the port length was cut for. Adding it does not make\n    a ported box sound like a bigger ported box; it makes it a mistuned one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRun a subsonic filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is not optional advice on a vented enclosure. Below tuning the port stops\n  loading the cone and excursion climbs without limit toward DC, so a 27 Hz high-pass at\n  24 dB per octave is part of the specification rather than a refinement of it. Set it\n  and the same cabinet takes substantially more power for the same cone travel. Leave it\n  out and the driver runs out of suspension on material you cannot hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eEvery wattage on the Performance Graphs tab is a mechanical limit, not an electrical\n  one: it is the power at which the cone reaches the end of its linear travel in this\n  box.

This one uses an\n  L-wrap slot port: a single folded wall running down the long side of the box past the\n  woofer ring, turning once through a faceted 90 degree bend, and opening through a\n  chamfered corner. One wall, one bend, 27.58 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is 3.25 inches wide by 6.25 tall, 20.3 square inches, and it exits\n  through a 22.1 square inch mouth. Air leaves at 16.5 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build. It does not go in this one. Damping material in a vented box\n    changes the effective volume the port is tuned against, which moves the tuning\n    frequency away from the 35.0 Hz the port length was cut for. Adding it does not make\n    a ported box sound like a bigger ported box; it makes it a mistuned one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRun a subsonic filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is not optional advice on a vented enclosure. Below tuning the port stops\n  loading the cone and excursion climbs without limit toward DC, so a 28 Hz high-pass at\n  24 dB per octave is part of the specification rather than a refinement of it. Set it\n  and the same cabinet takes substantially more power for the same cone travel. Leave it\n  out and the driver runs out of suspension on material you cannot hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eEvery wattage on the Performance Graphs tab is a mechanical limit, not an electrical\n  one: it is the power at which the cone reaches the end of its linear travel in this\n  box.

this driver is vented at 34.0 Hz\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eMost of the flat cabinets in this range are flat because the driver is modest. The 10W3v3 is not: it takes 500 watts and moves 14 mm one way, and this cabinet still measures 1.31 dB of anechoic ripple. That combination of power and flatness is rare in the ten inch class.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA 33.0 Hz resonance with 32.2 litres of Vas and a 0.50 Qts is the middle of every range that matters, and middle is what a fixed footprint likes. 1.25 cubic feet vented at 34.0 Hz produces an F3 of 31.9 Hz and 2.45 dB of in-car spread, second only to the W0v3 among JL's tens while carrying two thirds more power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe port is the product\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA ported cabinet is easy to get wrong and the failure is audible. This one uses an\n  L-wrap slot port: a single folded wall running down the long side of the box past the\n  woofer ring, turning once through a faceted 90 degree bend, and opening through a\n  chamfered corner. One wall, one bend, 27.70 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is 3.00 inches wide by 6.25 tall, 18.8 square inches, and it exits\n  through a 22.1 square inch mouth. Air leaves at 16.9 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build. It does not go in this one. Damping material in a vented box\n    changes the effective volume the port is tuned against, which moves the tuning\n    frequency away from the 34.0 Hz the port length was cut for. Adding it does not make\n    a ported box sound like a bigger ported box; it makes it a mistuned one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRun a subsonic filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is not optional advice on a vented enclosure. Below tuning the port stops\n  loading the cone and excursion climbs without limit toward DC, so a 27 Hz high-pass at\n  24 dB per octave is part of the specification rather than a refinement of it.

this driver is vented at 35.5 Hz\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe 10W6v3 is JL's flagship ten: 19 mm of one-way excursion, 600 watts, and a 30.1 Hz free-air resonance. In displacement terms it outguns every other ten in this programme and several of the twelves, and this cabinet is built to let it work rather than to make it behave.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e1.22 cubic feet vented at 35.5 Hz reaches an anechoic F3 of 29.8 Hz. The tuning sits higher than the other JL tens on purpose: a driver with this much displacement needs the port doing more of the work at the bottom, or the cone runs out of room before the amplifier runs out of watts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe port is the product\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA ported cabinet is easy to get wrong and the failure is audible. This one uses an\n  L-wrap slot port: a single folded wall running down the long side of the box past the\n  woofer ring, turning once through a faceted 90 degree bend, and opening through a\n  chamfered corner. One wall, one bend, 28.29 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is 3.25 inches wide by 6.25 tall, 20.3 square inches, and it exits\n  through a 26.5 square inch mouth. Air leaves at 16.9 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build. It does not go in this one. Damping material in a vented box\n    changes the effective volume the port is tuned against, which moves the tuning\n    frequency away from the 35.5 Hz the port length was cut for. Adding it does not make\n    a ported box sound like a bigger ported box; it makes it a mistuned one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRun a subsonic filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is not optional advice on a vented enclosure. Below tuning the port stops\n  loading the cone and excursion climbs without limit toward DC, so a 28 Hz high-pass at\n  24 dB per octave is part of the specification rather than a refinement of it. Set it\n  and the same cabinet takes substantially more power for the same cone travel. Leave it\n  out and the driver runs out of suspension on material you cannot hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eEvery wattage on the Performance Graphs tab is a mechanical limit, not an electrical\n  one: it is the power at which the cone reaches the end of its linear travel in this\n  box. What the voice coil can dissipate as heat is a separate ceiling set by JL Audio, not by\n  the cabinet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eCut for this driver, not for a catalogue\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-grid\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"df-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMounting\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCut to JL Audio's published 9.016 inch cutout with a\n    11.500 inch ring bonded under the baffle.

60 Hz in a vehicle, this cabinet varies by 0.94 dB. Only the Image Dynamics ID10 is flatter, and not by much. Of every ported box in the programme this is the one to buy if what you want is for the bottom end to simply be there, evenly, without a character of its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e72.0 litres of Vas and a 26.6 Hz free-air resonance make the 12W1v3 one of the most compliant drivers in the range, and compliance is what lets a vented alignment sit flat instead of peaking. 1.54 cubic feet tuned to 31.0 Hz is a large box for a 300 watt driver, and that is the point: the cabinet is sized for the response, not for the power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe port is the product\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA ported cabinet is easy to get wrong and the failure is audible. This one uses an\n  L-wrap slot port: a single folded wall running down the long side of the box past the\n  woofer ring, turning once through a faceted 90 degree bend, and opening through a\n  chamfered corner. One wall, one bend, 29.02 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is 3.25 inches wide by 6.25 tall, 20.3 square inches, and it exits\n  through a 26.5 square inch mouth. Air leaves at 10.1 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build. It does not go in this one. Damping material in a vented box\n    changes the effective volume the port is tuned against, which moves the tuning\n    frequency away from the 31.0 Hz the port length was cut for. Adding it does not make\n    a ported box sound like a bigger ported box; it makes it a mistuned one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRun a subsonic filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is not optional advice on a vented enclosure. Below tuning the port stops\n  loading the cone and excursion climbs without limit toward DC, so a 24 Hz high-pass at\n  24 dB per octave is part of the specification rather than a refinement of it. Set it\n  and the same cabinet takes substantially more power for the same cone travel. Leave it\n  out and the driver runs out of suspension on material you cannot hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eEvery wattage on the Performance Graphs tab is a mechanical limit, not an electrical\n  one: it is the power at which the cone reaches the end of its linear travel in this\n  box.

has 80.5 litres of Vas. That is the largest figure of any driver in this programme, edging the Arc X2V2's 79.3, and it describes a suspension so free that the enclosure sets the alignment almost single-handedly. The result is a cabinet that is top-three on both flatness measures at once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e1.10 dB of anechoic ripple and 1.18 dB of in-car spread, from a driver taking 500 watts and moving 13 mm. Flatness of that order normally comes from a modest motor; here it comes from a compliant one, which is a much better trade. Vented at 31.5 Hz in 1.43 cubic feet, the port sits at 51 percent of its turbulence limit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe port is the product\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA ported cabinet is easy to get wrong and the failure is audible. This one uses an\n  L-wrap slot port: a single folded wall running down the long side of the box past the\n  woofer ring, turning once through a faceted 90 degree bend, and opening through a\n  chamfered corner. One wall, one bend, 28.05 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is 3.00 inches wide by 6.25 tall, 18.8 square inches, and it exits\n  through a 22.1 square inch mouth. Air leaves at 14.8 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build. It does not go in this one. Damping material in a vented box\n    changes the effective volume the port is tuned against, which moves the tuning\n    frequency away from the 31.5 Hz the port length was cut for. Adding it does not make\n    a ported box sound like a bigger ported box; it makes it a mistuned one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRun a subsonic filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is not optional advice on a vented enclosure. Below tuning the port stops\n  loading the cone and excursion climbs without limit toward DC, so a 25 Hz high-pass at\n  24 dB per octave is part of the specification rather than a refinement of it. Set it\n  and the same cabinet takes substantially more power for the same cone travel.

10 has 40.0 litres of Vas, the most compliant of the seven Rockford tens this line covers, and it is their least expensive. Compliance is the raw material a vented alignment is built from, which is why the cheapest driver in the series is not the worst cabinet in it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e1.29 cubic feet vented at 34.5 Hz produces 2.5 dB of in-car spread with the port at 30 percent of its turbulence limit and 9.4 metres per second at the mouth. A 30.0 Hz resonance with a 0.52 Qts is a properly ported-friendly set of numbers, and the box does not have to work around anything.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe port is the product\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA ported cabinet is easy to get wrong and the failure is audible. This one uses an\n  L-wrap slot port: a single folded wall running down the long side of the box past the\n  woofer ring, turning once through a faceted 90 degree bend, and opening through a\n  chamfered corner. One wall, one bend, 28.28 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is 3.25 inches wide by 6.25 tall, 20.3 square inches, and it exits\n  through a 26.5 square inch mouth. Air leaves at 9.4 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build. It does not go in this one. Damping material in a vented box\n    changes the effective volume the port is tuned against, which moves the tuning\n    frequency away from the 34.5 Hz the port length was cut for. Adding it does not make\n    a ported box sound like a bigger ported box; it makes it a mistuned one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRun a subsonic filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is not optional advice on a vented enclosure. Below tuning the port stops\n  loading the cone and excursion climbs without limit toward DC, so a 27 Hz high-pass at\n  24 dB per octave is part of the specification rather than a refinement of it. Set it\n  and the same cabinet takes substantially more power for the same cone travel. Leave it\n  out and the driver runs out of suspension on material you cannot hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eEvery wattage on the Performance Graphs tab is a mechanical limit, not an electrical\n  one: it is the power at which the cone reaches the end of its linear travel in this\n  box.

measures 0.97 dB of in-car spread while carrying a driver rated for 400 watts with 13.3 mm of one-way travel. Flatness of that order usually belongs to modest motors; the Punch P2 12 is not one, and that combination is what makes it the pick of Rockford's twelves for most systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e81.5 litres of Vas with a 26.0 Hz resonance and a 0.52 Qts is close to the textbook ported driver, and 1.47 cubic feet vented at 30.0 Hz asks nothing unusual of it. 1.95 dB of anechoic ripple is the second flattest of the Rockford set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe port is the product\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA ported cabinet is easy to get wrong and the failure is audible. This one uses an\n  L-wrap slot port: a single folded wall running down the long side of the box past the\n  woofer ring, turning once through a faceted 90 degree bend, and opening through a\n  chamfered corner. One wall, one bend, 27.47 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is 2.75 inches wide by 6.25 tall, 17.2 square inches, and it exits\n  through a 17.7 square inch mouth. Air leaves at 15.3 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build. It does not go in this one. Damping material in a vented box\n    changes the effective volume the port is tuned against, which moves the tuning\n    frequency away from the 30.0 Hz the port length was cut for. Adding it does not make\n    a ported box sound like a bigger ported box; it makes it a mistuned one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRun a subsonic filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is not optional advice on a vented enclosure. Below tuning the port stops\n  loading the cone and excursion climbs without limit toward DC, so a 24 Hz high-pass at\n  24 dB per octave is part of the specification rather than a refinement of it.

8 has 9.9 litres of Vas. That is the smallest compliance of any full-size driver here, and it describes a suspension stiff enough that the enclosure has very little influence over what the driver does. That fact shapes everything about this cabinet and it is worth understanding before you buy it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eGiven 1.05 cubic feet vented at 37.0 Hz it reaches an anechoic F3 of 31.2 Hz with the port at 37 percent of its turbulence limit and 13.0 metres per second at the mouth. The high tuning is not a choice so much as an acknowledgement: a 39.6 Hz motor with this little compliance has nothing to give lower down, and tuning under it would only put a hole in the passband.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe port is the product\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA ported cabinet is easy to get wrong and the failure is audible. This one uses an\n  L-wrap slot port: a single folded wall running down the long side of the box past the\n  woofer ring, turning once through a faceted 90 degree bend, and opening through a\n  chamfered corner. One wall, one bend, 28.00 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is 3.00 inches wide by 6.25 tall, 18.8 square inches, and it exits\n  through a 22.1 square inch mouth. Air leaves at 13.0 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build. It does not go in this one. Damping material in a vented box\n    changes the effective volume the port is tuned against, which moves the tuning\n    frequency away from the 37.0 Hz the port length was cut for. Adding it does not make\n    a ported box sound like a bigger ported box; it makes it a mistuned one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRun a subsonic filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is not optional advice on a vented enclosure. Below tuning the port stops\n  loading the cone and excursion climbs without limit toward DC, so a 29 Hz high-pass at\n  24 dB per octave is part of the specification rather than a refinement of it. Set it\n  and the same cabinet takes substantially more power for the same cone travel. Leave it\n  out and the driver runs out of suspension on material you cannot hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eEvery wattage on the Performance Graphs tab is a mechanical limit, not an electrical\n  one: it is the power at which the cone reaches the end of its linear travel in this\n  box.

This one uses an\n  L-wrap slot port: a single folded wall running down the long side of the box past the\n  woofer ring, turning once through a faceted 90 degree bend, and opening through a\n  chamfered corner. One wall, one bend, 27.69 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is 3.25 inches wide by 6.25 tall, 20.3 square inches, and it exits\n  through a 22.1 square inch mouth. Air leaves at 13.9 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build. It does not go in this one. Damping material in a vented box\n    changes the effective volume the port is tuned against, which moves the tuning\n    frequency away from the 35.0 Hz the port length was cut for. Adding it does not make\n    a ported box sound like a bigger ported box; it makes it a mistuned one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRun a subsonic filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is not optional advice on a vented enclosure. Below tuning the port stops\n  loading the cone and excursion climbs without limit toward DC, so a 28 Hz high-pass at\n  24 dB per octave is part of the specification rather than a refinement of it. Set it\n  and the same cabinet takes substantially more power for the same cone travel. Leave it\n  out and the driver runs out of suspension on material you cannot hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eEvery wattage on the Performance Graphs tab is a mechanical limit, not an electrical\n  one: it is the power at which the cone reaches the end of its linear travel in this\n  box.

anechoic passband ripple is the flattest measurement of the seventeen Rockford cabinets in this line, and among the flattest in the whole programme.

Air leaves at 11.0 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build.

seven Rockford tens this cabinet is built for, the shallowest one also measures the flattest in a car: 2.3 dB of spread across 25 to 60 Hz from a driver 3.42 inches deep. That ordering is not what anyone expects, and it is the reason to look at the Prime R2 Shallow before the deeper options.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA 39.3 Hz resonance with 21.7 litres of Vas and a 0.73 Qts is a compliant, heavily damped motor, and heavy damping is what keeps a vented alignment from peaking. 1.26 cubic feet at 35.5 Hz produces an F3 of 31.7 Hz with the port at 31 percent of its turbulence limit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe port is the product\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA ported cabinet is easy to get wrong and the failure is audible. This one uses an\n  L-wrap slot port: a single folded wall running down the long side of the box past the\n  woofer ring, turning once through a faceted 90 degree bend, and opening through a\n  chamfered corner. One wall, one bend, 27.05 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is 3.25 inches wide by 6.25 tall, 20.3 square inches, and it exits\n  through a 17.7 square inch mouth. Air leaves at 13.6 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build. It does not go in this one. Damping material in a vented box\n    changes the effective volume the port is tuned against, which moves the tuning\n    frequency away from the 35.5 Hz the port length was cut for. Adding it does not make\n    a ported box sound like a bigger ported box; it makes it a mistuned one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRun a subsonic filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is not optional advice on a vented enclosure. Below tuning the port stops\n  loading the cone and excursion climbs without limit toward DC, so a 28 Hz high-pass at\n  24 dB per octave is part of the specification rather than a refinement of it. Set it\n  and the same cabinet takes substantially more power for the same cone travel. Leave it\n  out and the driver runs out of suspension on material you cannot hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eEvery wattage on the Performance Graphs tab is a mechanical limit, not an electrical\n  one: it is the power at which the cone reaches the end of its linear travel in this\n  box.

This one uses an\n  L-wrap slot port: a single folded wall running down the long side of the box past the\n  woofer ring, turning once through a faceted 90 degree bend, and opening through a\n  chamfered corner. One wall, one bend, 27.93 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is 3.25 inches wide by 6.25 tall, 20.3 square inches, and it exits\n  through a 26.5 square inch mouth. Air leaves at 16.7 metres per second at the tuning\n  frequency, against the 17.0 metre per second threshold where a slot port starts to\n  chuff. The bend is faceted rather than square because the inner corner of a 90 degree\n  turn is where flow separates, and a sharp corner there is what you hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X\n    cabinet we build. It does not go in this one. Damping material in a vented box\n    changes the effective volume the port is tuned against, which moves the tuning\n    frequency away from the 35.0 Hz the port length was cut for. Adding it does not make\n    a ported box sound like a bigger ported box; it makes it a mistuned one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRun a subsonic filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is not optional advice on a vented enclosure. Below tuning the port stops\n  loading the cone and excursion climbs without limit toward DC, so a 28 Hz high-pass at\n  24 dB per octave is part of the specification rather than a refinement of it. Set it\n  and the same cabinet takes substantially more power for the same cone travel. Leave it\n  out and the driver runs out of suspension on material you cannot hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eEvery wattage on the Performance Graphs tab is a mechanical limit, not an electrical\n  one: it is the power at which the cone reaches the end of its linear travel in this\n  box.

Adding it does not make\n    a ported box sound like a bigger ported box; it makes it a mistuned one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRun a subsonic filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is not optional advice on a vented enclosure. Below tuning the port stops\n  loading the cone and excursion climbs without limit toward DC, so a 28 Hz high-pass at\n  24 dB per octave is part of the specification rather than a refinement of it. Set it\n  and the same cabinet takes substantially more power for the same cone travel. Leave it\n  out and the driver runs out of suspension on material you cannot hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eEvery wattage on the Performance Graphs tab is a mechanical limit, not an electrical\n  one: it is the power at which the cone reaches the end of its linear travel in this\n  box. What the voice coil can dissipate as heat is a separate ceiling set by Rockford Fosgate, not by\n  the cabinet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eCut for this driver, not for a catalogue\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-grid\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"df-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMounting\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCut to Rockford Fosgate's published 9.130 inch cutout with a\n    11.750 inch ring bonded under the baffle.
