The pressure response frequency characteristic of the back enclosed cabinet is labeled B on the graph. The pressure response frequency characteristic with the back removed is labeled A on the graph. cabinet is shown by the graph of Fig. It will be seen that the re- sponse with the back enclosed cabinet is superior to the conventional open back cabinet. This is in general the case, providing the fundamental resonance frequency of the cone is made sufficiently low. The low fre- quency response of the open back cabinet falls off more rapidly with de- crease in the frequency than that of the closed cabinet. This is due to the fact that the open back cabinet acts as a doublet while the closed back cabinet acts as a simple source. See Sees. and The power output of a doublet for constant velocity is proportional to the fourth po
