[QUOTE="LoudCrownVic, post: 393083, member: 551225"] Ported boxes have far far FAR tighter bass than sealed! I just switched from sealed to ported and I should know the difference. Sealed boxes do what i call "carry over" a bass note. They have equal sound output through the note because they have a sealed environment that wil either have pressure or vaccuum. It seems to fight itself to produce the sound. For a ported box, a bass note such as a quick hit in a speed metal song, is a quick hit because the pressure is dissapated from the hit and the voice coil can respond freely to the next hit. The difference, if you have two boxes sealed and ported right next to each other, will be that the sealed will respond pretty much the same except for the ported box will be in all instances louder (as they are more efficient) and in my opinion far more detailed. Notice that this all is speculation, and i did not mention if you had more cubes you would get lower bass louder. To be honest, I built my ported box and it made little difference on how low it played, it just played quite a bit louder. [/QUOTE]
