ported

I wanted more output and lower(hz) response than I was getting with sealed...I have not owned a driver designed for sealed enclosure

custom 2ft^3/driver @ 24hz

2 phoenix gold rsd10d dual 4 (recommended ~300rms)

planet audio BB1250.1 (tuned for 1250wrms @ 58/63 volume)

Ported

I listen to mostly rap so my I like my bass a little boomier so to speak. I also like the higher level of output.

Lol. I'm feelin a Marlins/Rays WS. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/woot.gif.aaa6090e619a97b6090d16dd863c5a69.gif

Anyways, back to the original point. I like sealed because it seems to have a smoother response..But thats just me. I'm gonna tune a box down to 28 and see how I like it.

when can you make it to Queens?

Im thinking about setting up another meet

- Sealed (sometimes low-tuned ported lol...but most of the time sealed)

- Natural/Smooth sound....I like my sub being accurate. Sealed also saves space and handles power well. Also, ported cant really extend up towards the 70-100 hz like a sealed box can (unless its a perfect build).

- JL 15W6 in a 2.65 cu ft enclosure with 500wrms

(coming soon...700wrms on a MAW-15 in a 2.15 cu ft ported box tuned to 32hz...group delay and response looks good //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif )
