Yes, those are the two I've found best of all. The one tends to be
enormous and the other very inefficient. I've yet to hear bass from a
ported reflex enclosure that I actually like.


Strange I can't think of any pro speaker maker who used TL?


PMC?

But overall I'd guess in part because the bass tends to be unnaturally
extended. Something of an acoustic trick, which I happen to like, and is
a good compromise for domestic use? I'd guess ;-)
