CompVR Ported (Vented) Enclosure Applications
Ported CompVRs? Absolutely...and with a vengeance! These enclosures incorporate massive slot-loaded (rectangular) ports with
ultra low air velocity for ground pounding street bass that will make your “skin bounce on your bones!” These boxes are the enclosure
of choice for outrageous street bass and high performance SPL contests.
The ported Compact design increases bass efficiency and fits in many space-limited applications. Although it is the smallest
recommended ported enclosure, the output from 30 to 80 Hz will be considerably higher than that of any sealed box. The SPL / Deep
Bass design has proportionately more output in this crucial frequency band.
The SPL / Deep Bass is the largest and most efficient enclosure design. The SPL / Deep Bass delivers the sonic output needed to
win SPL contests and it produces bass notes “all the way down to tha cella”. This design turns heads and jump starts your heart.
If space is not a problem and you want to get the most from your CompVR, try one of these ported designs. You will not be
disappointed.
