3 15's sealed or 2 ported??

[casper97ta 10+ year member]

i just recently bought 3 15 treo tsx's. but my whole plan was to go ported because i've always run sealed and wanted to see how loud i can get with these ported. i drive a 97 dakota and dont have the airspace for 3 ported 15's. so which setup is gonna hit the highest numbers? thanks

What kind of power? regualr cab or extended?? hard to get super loud in a dodge due to the foam in the roof, it absorbs DBs (kow this from exp). But I would go with 2 15s ported.

sorry for lack of info. its an ex-cab. so i got i think 49in across. i figure if i throw 1200-1500 per sub that should slam pretty loud. i figured i would get more output from the ported setup.

IMO you would be louder with the ported setup

you better have an honest 1200 per sub with those woofers. the tsx is one of my all time favorites out of all the subs i have had. the best sounding bass i have ever heard was with three tsx 10"s and a zapco c2k 9.0. nice setup.

ported would be significantly louder in the ports passband..
