[QUOTE="JimGore, post: 810999, member: 3"] To me the biggest difference is in the the way the rear wave can be damped and the way a TL doesn't build as much pressure as a bass reflex cabinet. My all time favorite type of speaker is still a tapered quarter wave tube (TQWT) which works on a similar principle as a TL, but with less folding. On paper it doesn't look like it performs any better than a bass reflex with a 6dB shelf, but it sure sounds very different. Best is to just build a couple rough prototypes so you can experiment and hear for yourself. Kind regards, Ian. [/QUOTE]
