Free air resonance

Hello all,

Is a speaker with a free air resonance of 25 hz meaningfully different from one with a free air resonance of 38 hz?

Specifically: is the one at 25 hz low enough to be in a sealed enclosure, as opposed to the one at 38 hz which most likely/definitely should be in a ported enclosure? And why?

Thank you in advance …

Sorry, I must  have misread.  I thought you said you had the Velodyne crossed at 2k!

All the best.

I have no dog in this, but I am curious why you have the Velodyne set up so high?  I have never had a subwoofer set past 100hz with like a 12db roll in.  

Oh and BTW, you have three of the smartest and nicest people helping you here.
