Mike, the ported models I heard was my 600v2, a 350v2 and a plethora of other manufacturers. I had never heard a sealed until the 800v4. That cemented in my head that sealed is better compared to all others I heard. Far better.

But now...well...this 125v4 is superb! You'd never know it was ported until you lifted the grill and looked.

As far as I'm concerned, for Axiom subs, it's not about ported vs. sealed any more. It's about size, SPL and low frequency extension. That is as it ought to be!

As far as I know, I am the first to report this since the sphinctered v4 subs were birthed.

Edit: It's also about cross-over adjust, phase adjust and XLR or RCA. And it ought not to be. Andrew should have yanked the high level inputs on the ported subs and added the same cross-over adjust, phase adjust and XLR or RCA. These are the only obvious poor product decisions that I see.
