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 ;-)

Unnatural?


Well, perhaps not unnatural as such, more extended. I'd add my
experience of TLs is quite limited, but what I've heard (LNB and a
couple of KEF kits) I've liked . . .
