Bass creates a pretty long excursion, especially for the low notes. So, the speakers rely on some sort of resistance from the air within the cabinet, whether it's sealed and creates a lot of resistance, or ported and creates resistance at certain frequencies. An open back cabinet provides no resistance and it will be very easy to go into over-excursion, resulting in dead speakers.
I appreciate any input.
