how do you know which box is better for a spec sub?

Is there a way to tell if your sub will play better in a sealed ported or bandpass box?

I have 2 10'' Tremor subs

Having the one in a ported at the momment...... it shakes the car, glass but not me //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

The specs if they help any

Fs = 28Hz

Qms 4,726

Qes 0.483

Qts 0.438

Vas 1,6 Ft 44L

Xmax 0.5''

85db 1w/1m

Revc 6.3MH @ 1 kHz

Single Voice coil 8ohms

(http://www.earthquakesound.com tremor 10'' old model)

don't know if this is true... sealed is for rock? bandpass to hear you a block away?

I like trance if it helps in the decision....

At the descr off them it says "push-pull" configuration but there was no information about it when I bought it. Couldn't find any info on the net either.

I run it with PH300.1 (Brand: Earthquake i know that noone knows the brand //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Im not an expert on the subject but in my opinion if you looking for the loud thump of the techno trance sound your going to want a ported box that your sub is designed for, you will get a deeper bass sound that will not be as tight as a sealed box. A sealed box will give a you tighter bass sound that is not as loose as the ported, in a ported enclosure the sub will not respond as quick as a sub in a sealed box.

ported then, thank you!

another one question, can a number of 10'' subs replace (do the work) of a 15'' sub?
