Bad experience with ED? just curious, oh and as far as listening I listen to music about equally to how much i watch movies. Thanks for the imput! Keep it coming!
Not me personally but I've been around long enough to read complaints from others. I definitely lean towards sealed subs... personally I prefer not to have a port contributing in any way to the sound signature presented, I prefer a driver system that retains its air spring/driver loading. I also like a manageable, heavily braced cabinet size, where the rear wave is isolated from the front wave. For my bass reproduction I'd rather not hear the subwoofer, just the sound...
Mostly I have built my own subs but my first addiction started with some heavy duty subs,
SVS PB12-Plus/2's big ported dual 12" drivers...... they could rumble things quite well and had great output but not a ton of detail, kinda tubby, it was after that I bought a small 12" sealed sub from SVS for my son, which was quite a bit more accurate. I thought, hmmm now were onto something - sealed...
Went out on a limb and bought a JL F112 - now this is a sub, tons of power, accuracy, no decay, just excellent high quality clean bass and lots of it for a medium small room.... From that point my obsession began with building my own sealed subs, searching out good high quality car audio drivers. Seemed everyone else was doing it...
Its been a great learning journey, I actually have a new Submersive on the way, same design as the Empire, dual opposed to replace the F112.
