DIY Orelo (Orelo/Orelino)

what are you subjectively and objectively gaining running this as a dipole instead of closing the bass drivers in a cab on the back?

i think you gonna load this much lower if you give them nice 180l or so in the back, which may be especially important if you run the halved version.

Not at all, you'll need at least 360 liter (there are 2 15 drivers!!!) and then still does it not go deeper. The open system seems to play even deeper in frequency (no enclosed air pressure shifting the lowest frequency up).

For most people (especially in a small room!) you'll have enough reserves with half the system while playing deep frequencies (normal use of course).

The extra enclosure at the back takes much more space than it will give extra useful output in return, especially in a small room where it is not needed!
