The lower the q value, the more low end you get but you also get higher group delay which can make things sound muddy. Lower aligments also start to get more boomy and have an aparent loss in the upper bass frequencies. Their power handling is also decreased due to mechanical limits. The higher the q value, the less low end you will have and you will create a peaky or boomy sound in the upper bass frequencies.If you want to RSD to sound nice, don't port it. That sub looks like it would be pretty peaky ported. I would put it in about 1-2 cubes sealed. That should give you a nice response from that sub with a good amount of low end.</blockquote>
