If you are talking about a subwoofer system, that is a speaker and box which
were designed to operate together, then this is basically true.  But a naked
subwoofer needs to be mounted in an enclosure that will allow it to produce
a wide range of frequencies at the same level of loudness.  There are
usually good instructions on naked drivers (that's a good mind picture ;0)).
But a good rule of thumb is that a smaller speaker in a smaller space will
give a flatter frequency response.  So you may use your front doors as very
nice enclosures for a smaller woofer and have fairly good sound.  This would
of course involve a bit of manicuring.
Respectfully,
