Does anyone know what the volume of the enclosure is on the LSi15? (also the size and lenth of the port.)

I am thinking about upgrading the woofer in my LSi15's and wanted to model some different woofers in WinISD.

I have heard the Polk DB series is pretty much a drop in replacement, but was wondering if the Momo sub would be a better choice or even a sub from another manufacturer. (don't know much about 8" subs)

Anyway - will keep you all informed with what I find out.

    I will say that while the DB is supposed to be a drop in replacement, the recommended enclosure sizes are the same for the DB and Momo subs.

    The price difference is negligable between them (actually the Momo would be a little cheaper as their seems to be more of them in the used market) and the Momo series seems to be an upgrade over the DB series from what I have read....
