ECB subjectivity

leftnote · 5th February 2004, 07:13 AM

I am trying to decide whether to go vented or closed. I want this driver to
have excellent transient ability so I am leaning toward a closed system.
However, my driver has an EBP of ~82 so I'm told a vented system produces
"better" results. I'm not sure what is meant by better? Does this mean lower
extension, better ability of the driver to "keep up" with the signal, safer
driver operation, or what?

If I am happy with the WinISD curves for my closed configuration is that all
that matters or is there some hard to quantify loss of musicality I will
incur by leaning the wrong way?
