[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8192602, member: 650438"] your gonna get a lot more low end output with ported but the design is important. Sealed has tighter bass with good transient response and a pretty wide bandwidth with slow roll offs. Typically for an Easy Sound Qualtiy oriented build you would go sealed. Ported can have close to the same SQ with proper design but it'll have a ton more output. It'll be on your preference if you want it loud and car flexing or if you just want accurate bass to fill in the sound. Personally i never liked the sound of sealed boxes, the bass is anemic and lacking compared to a good ported box but thats just my preference, yours may be different. Do you want the speakers amped also or do you want to sink all of it to the sub stage? also regarding space, 1 15 would take up a little bit less room cubic feet wise then 2 12s and provide almost the same amount of output the benefit is you only need to spend money on a single sub woofer vs buying two.
