Do me a favor and put one of those 1508's in a sealed enclosure and give it a listen, try 5 different ones whatever I don't care you aren't going to get it to have a nice response.


Does this look sealed to you?

Re: Subs foward firing?
Are you asking if that sub has a port? because the CAD drawing dosent really leave enough to tell if thats a slot port in the middle or just a barrier between the two sides

Re: Subs foward firing?
And that box had nothing to do with my post. My comment was directed at the fact that they shouldn't be put in a sealed enclosure not that you were putting them in one.

One other comment, that box not only looks too small but also has no where near enough port area.
