[QUOTE="dirtracer455, post: 5388532, member: 599052"] So I am planning on installing a single 10'' sub into my 08 Silverado Ext. Cab in the next few days. I already have the sub, amp, wiring, and stereo adapter. Now the most important part... the BOX I know a guy at a local shop who said he would help me build a box. However, I am trying to decide between ported and sealed. My sub is a FiCaraudio SSD 10. It runs at about 800-850 RMS power. On Fi's site the box recommendations for ported and sealed are as follows: SSD 10 Sealed box: .2-.6 cuft Ported box: .9-1.5 cuft @ 33Hz Similar boxes from subthump.com are about .9'' cu in volume. I know its better to be on the higher side of the range to get the best sound and lows. Would it be better to go sealed? Advice would be appreciated! -Mike [/QUOTE]
