Can SEALED Compete With PORTED? Arendal 1723 2V VERSUS 1723 2S Subwoofer!

How do they compare to the Jtr 2400? I have to buy a new subwoofer and I am struggling between Arendal 1723 2v and the Jtr2400

Thx for this comparison!

If you could get the 1723 2v or the Perlisten D212 which one would you buy?

Dude. You nailed it!! After all 3 of your videos, you completely covered every aspect of comparison and output levels on both subs!! I’m soo glad you did this last video with the detailed comparison side by side and I think you absolutely described exactly what these subs do for every scenario! 🎉 you rock!!

Ok now ya just need to get those newer subs in like the new hsu sub, the Perlisten R18S, the Starke Sw15 sealed 15”, and the new KEF KC92 9” sub (this is smaller than you’re usual subs, but I’d really like to see if it lives up to their claims!). And lastly, have you ever tested the Sunfire Xteq dual 12” ?? I’d be extremely curious to see you compare that with the Arendal sealed sun! Thank you! 🎉

Due to my unique lounge setup, it would be easier for me to accomodate 2x 2S rather than even just 1 2V. Do you think 2x 2S would deliver comparable result to 1 x 2V?

If waf matters - then I would say the 2v is a monster compared to 2s. Im still amazed what this “little” one can do compared to the big one ! Wife will never allow 2v but 2s should be doable. I just need sub that can pull 20 hz and a little below. The 2s surely can do that. I never play that loud - again wife 😜 so 2s would be my next sub.

What are the speakers you have set up behind you?

Great video, thanks. Does the 2S sound better for music than the 2V in either mode?

i have 3 subs--- 2 ported 1 sealed--- they all blend in perfectly--- it doesnt matter what you have--- just EQ it and do your room correction and happy days, mine sound awesome for both music and movies--- there is no wrong choice--- just get good ones

sealed and vented are more similar than showed here, you compressed the whole graph for one point with compression.
then the low bass output the sealed has more linear response, if all three subwoofer configurations was eq'ed to have same flatness then you would see on the graphs how it really is.
but for out of the box max volume your testing shows how that would sound, but i always recommend eq to flat by ear and that equalize all subwoofers types, and for me that is at the lowest hz i want played back, where i recommend 15hz as baseline. lower if you expect more from many huge subwoofers.

Thanks for the detailed review! Great as always!

There's several 1S vs 1V and 2S vs 2V reviews now. I'm curious how the 2S compares with 1V...
