Believe it or not, a larger than optimum cabinet usually does allow the
speaker to reproduce lower freqeuncies, but at lower output levels, the
result being low end extended a bit but rolling off more quickly compared
to an optimum cabinet. Oversize cabinets also tend to reduce the
speaker's power handling capability.

Would you care to back up those assertions, please?

Download a free progfram called Box Port Design at

try it out for yourself. Please note that I said "a largter than optimum"
cabinet, meaning larger than the optimum volume for a given speaker.
