[QUOTE="JimGore, post: 73080, member: 3"] IB is an entirely different concept. It gives both SPL and SQ at the same time, but not for the same reasons as enclosure subs. And IB is like an infinitely massive sealed enclosure. What is interesting about IB is that the Q of the system is determined by the Q of the drivers on it's own - this is because the "enclosure" has no participation - there is no compression of air, or other tuning mechanisms involved. With IB, you also try to get a Q of around 0.5 or as close as possible for a nice smooth response. Because there is no cabinet, and because the entire system operates in half space rather than full space for standard subs, and because there are so many drivers working at the same time, you get very good efficiency and SPL out of the system. Regards, Ian. [/QUOTE]
