Re: bandpass or sealed or ported- which????

Well...like i said, the xplods sounds good enough for me, i can use the money on other things like intake, exhaust, and a bodykit, which i bought all three...

I just installed my magnaflow exhaust and my AEM CAI is on its way, i just ordered a Bomex bodykit so im pretty happy right now...

EVERY stereo component is designed with a series of compromises ... one of them is price.

sadly, nearly all of them have to deal with price. like paying over a grand for focal or rainbow speakers. the compromise there is in your wallet.

Re: bandpass or sealed or ported- which????

wel, not really .... some equipment is designed for different applications. Some subs are SPL based, they get really loud but are not too accurate - some are SQ based, they are very accurate but not really loud. Some speakers (mid/tweets) are in your face, some are laid back, some are very accurate. Some expensive CD players have a gazillion functions, some concentrate on SQ and can be very featureless. Like I said, there are lots of compromises made in the design and engineering phase of a product, and one of those is the projected market cost.
