The best response from any enclosure is is f rom one that has only one opening. The rest of t eh enclosure is sealed (as air tight as possible). This prevents the air pressure from opposing the movement of the speaker cone. A good and relatively inexpensive speaker that sounds good for a layout is a 5x7 inch oval with a wizzer (not electrically driven tweeter) cone. For DCC sound decoders, I have had very good luck by placing two 1" round speakers facing each other in a sealed placstic tube (a 35 mm film canister with the bottom cut off). Cross- connect the terminals. This makes the cones move in phase wit heach other ie both move left or both move right at the same time. The result is better base response than from one alone. I hope this helps. --- Steve
