Bandpass applications have won SQ competitions before. With bandpass you're getting huge mechanical control over the subwoofers while adding output simultaneously, less excursion=stronger BL, less linear and non-linear distortion all around which is a good thing. It all boils down to the type of design, most are bastardized and used solely for SPL competition <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick Out Tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" />uke:.There aren't a lot of dedicated car audio subs on the market anymore. Most newer subs are designed to work well in "all" (none) of the potential applications.</blockquote>
