Title says it all. So a little background I’m currently working on getting my setup complete last year I upgraded from bookshelf to floor standing speakers however since then I have built my own subwoofers using a um18-22 however these are sealed and the accuracy of them is phenomenal especially when compared to ported subs like the two monolith plus I had before, now I need some speakers to match in with them I’m currently using monitor audio silver 500 7g they are great speakers they just don’t sound right when I get down near the ports tune it goes all muddy and I am yet to hear a pair of ported speakers that don’t cuff when down near there tune, so I want to move over to sealed as they seem to be better for accurate reproduction of the sound being received. I’ve been hunting for months but yet all floor standing speakers seemed to be ported am I going to have to DIY it and make my own or does someone on here happen to know of where I can purchase some sealed floor standing or old school design(like lintons) that can be purchased in the UK?

    you just picked that rarest of speaker type. i do not know why all this port, transmissions line and passive radiator are common when we all need subwoofer in the end.
    KLH Model Five is one, still need a small stand.

      I know tell me about it, the thing is though it is the best sounding it is always very clean when sealed whereas the rest are dirty to my ears

        i just remember, Manger p1 is sealed, may need to go to the preview version and find it used.
