One exception to the slot loaded subwoofers that won't play loud,
that I am very familiar with, is the JANIS W1. It uses a driver
that employs a voice coil that "falls" into alignment when mounted
face down in the enclosure. Also the W1 is available across the country
at a price (on the used market) that would make most people question
whether the time required to build a good subwoofer is worth it. I bought
mine in mint condition for 250.00 in the denver area, they should be even
easier to find out east.
