tl - those ports probably are close to 6" diameter, and to make just one make audible air flow you would be so over powered by the woofer output you would never know.

Needless to say, 21k for two custom 15" drivers and an automotive finished high end cabinet... sounds exactly like Wilson Audio.]]>Jan 30th 2008 4:28AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/01/29/wilson-audio-putting-the-hammer-down-on-bass/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/01/29/wilson-audio-putting-the-hammer-down-on-bass/
Two 15" one-off TC built monsters: $700
Two custom built cabinets: $250
Total savings: $20,050

DIY FTW!

I will have to stick with my Paradigm Studios for now and possibly Paradigm Signature or B&W Nautilus 800 series down the road, but that is going to be my cap for spending on speakers and even then, $5k per pair is kind of pricey for me.

However, if I did win the lotto or something, I would hunt down a pair of the B&W Nautilus, I am sure they sound great, but they would also be a cool conversation piece!

Maybe those Krell Mono-blocks that put out 350 watts and are something like $6,000. You however will have to buy a room for the amps alone...
