In light of what Mr. Ferstler wrote here, I wonder how the highly praised
Eminent Technology EMT-VIIIa speaker, which employs a 1400 cu.in. acoustic
suspension enclosure to hold a custom designed 8" (eight) woofer, can
achieve such excellent bass response results?

It would seem to me that a 1400 cu.in. enclosure is really quite small, and
without the help of a port to reinforce the sound, what is the "secret"
behind the speaker's excellent performance?
