Has anyone ever used these in lieu of a port?

If so, any advantages/disadvantages, or comments in general?

I've used passive radiators before.. they work pretty well. I used a pair of 10" radiators with two 8" subs in one car. sounded pretty nice.

Adire Audio makes them for their subwoofers, I think mainly for the Shiva. You can download the tech sheet as they do the math for you and take all the guesswork out of it.

Yeah, Adires passive radiator is called the PR15. You can download the Shiva Passive Radiator application tech sheet on their website, it's mainly intended for home use, but will work just as well in a car. They give box dimensions, etc.
