OK, thanks.
Just remembered I bought a pair of Kef Cadenzas with passive radiators very cheaply in a charity shop a few years back. Got them for a friend for spares, who has Kefs with similar drivers (B200, T27), but with a better box and crossover. Can't recall the model, but he's definitely a fan of the passive radiator designs.
Anyhoo, I digress... Horses for courses presumably. I don't believe that I have ever seen speakers with passive radiators made for higher SPLs but perhaps they do exist?
Like large voicecoils, I have always assumed that ports are advantageous where high power/volume is required.
Apologies if this is wrong/and/or veering off topic here though.
Edit : He had the Kef 104aB. The passive radiator is the B139.
