[QUOTE="swimfreak26, post: 1654949, member: 544365"] Deep bass is kind of a broad way to put it. In a sealed box you get better low end frequency response, or in other words the best DEEP bass. The problem, or tradeoff rather, is that you lose efficiency as far as output is concerned. With 100 watts I'd go ported. Also, by the way your question is phrashed and the "goals" you have with your system, I'd say you're not going for deep bass, the sound you're actually looking for is the peaky sound that will carry, in which case I say tune ~35Hz in a ported box. As a point of reference though, to truly get deep bass you'd like to tune lower, say 30Hz, or 28Hz. The lower you tune a ported box, the closer the response curve mimics that of a sealed box, making the tradeoff of space vs. output not worth it eventually. [/QUOTE]
