i have a idea for a ib but dont know if it would be.
my ht is in the basement and it is open to the rest of the basement. right next to the ht is the stairs and laundryroom with is not directley open to.


you come down the stairs got to the roght and you are in my ht go to the left you head tward the pool area and the opening to the laundry room. would this setup work as a ib or do i need to add a door or something.


also how much less power do you need for a ip vs a ported box?

Yes the rear wave of the woofers in an IB must be physically isolated/sealed from the front wave. Distance alone isn't enough.
