need to know about the Series Tuned Dual Reflex Bandpass Enclosures
if i have two focal 27h one on each end of the box with the port in the center of the box what will it do for SQ
if you do not know what i'm think the box looks like a Dual Reflex Bandpass
(6th order) Enclosure but the 2ed port goes into the other side not out the side of the box

Decreased frequency response,less accurate reproduction,greater woofer unloading,less power handling,
I think it would boom like crazy,while sounding like poo

I'd try a quasi eighth order design if you wanted to maintain good SQ while getting more SPL out of the system.

I built one for two RE8s and it was good. Just takes time to design and build, and uses a lot of room.

That will get you started, but I'd post your numbers here or on icix before you build because if i remember correctly, how they calculate the tunings on that page isnt quite right.

i hear they can sound decent, but it would have to be custom built for your woofer, using a prefab bandbass isn't a good idea

I think he must mean a qusi 4th order? That's not what the link shows but it would be a bandpass.
