Ported/Vented Enclosure Applications
Ported Solo-Barics incorporate massive slot loaded ports with ultra low air velocity for ground pounding street
bass that will make your hair stand on end (if you have any left)! These are the enclosures of choice for outrageous
street bass and high performance SPL contests.
The following chart shows three recommended ported enclosures for each Solo-Baric driver.
Compact has increased bass efficiency over a sealed enclosure, yet can still fit in tighter applications.
It is the smallest design that will work well for each woofer. Although it is the smallest ported enclosure the output
from 30 to 80 HZ will be considerably higher than that of a sealed box. This smallest vented design is for places
where you can only give up the room normally taken up by two L7s in the normal small sealed boxes. The two
other ported designs have proportionately more output in this region.
Street Bass is a medium sized enclosure that will kick out bass that can be heard for blocks away. And it does
go LOW!
Finally, SPL / Deep Bass is a large enclosure that has it all. It is high efficiency and will deliver the output needed
to win SPL contests, yet low frequencies go all the way down to the basement - with power that will shake the
foundations! We’re talking truly awesome.
If space is not at a premium and you want to get the most from your Solo-Baric® L7, try one of these designs.
You won’t be disappointed. Note: You must add the port volume to the volume of the box! See the
cut sheets.
