This little sub should work in a .25 cuft ported enclosure, has anyone got any experience with these little woofers?
I am being told that a pair (one in each door) will not have significant output...I tend to believe that a pair of high excursion 5" subs, could belt it out above 50hz. I am being told to use 4!
Thanks...

I'm all over the map with these darn door speakers! I would limit multiple point sources of the same frequency by using 12/24 db crossovers. I am curious as to the mid bass performance of this particular configuration. This is my way of researching different methods to tackle a problem, as I find the info dealt out here to be very helpful. Dave, you reiterated what I have been hearing about the 5" speaker, I need more than 2.
Thanks again!

Don't let anybody fool you man....the 5WS is a serious driver....works VERY well in doors and produces amazingly accurate midbass for a 5" driver.
