How important is SQ if all you listen to is Rap?

Gtondubs said it, sealed boxes shouldn't be the only boxes associated with sq because ported boxes can give great sound quality also with some subs and the right tuning and box. Depends on what kind of subs and their Qts. Usually a sub with Qts below .4 may work better in a ported box than sealed. A Qts of .4 to .7 may work better in a sealed box. I know this is not always the case, but you can still have great sound quality with a ported box. And as far as sound quality, I think sound quality is important no matter what kind of music you listen to.

SQ= a good sounding system that accurately plays the music, if you are going to build a system that sounds like sh!t then why bother wasting the money

I had 2 SE 10s in a ported box and it still had great sound quality

Def Leppards bass kicks were well defined and orgasmic //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

SQ plays a role in all situations

however its the matter of how much of a role it plays in each

IMO, rap doesnt require that much SQ, its not a bass drum kick as in the bass is there then its gone, rap tends to have long rumbling bass hits. now before someone gets on a soap box and declares my home a satan safehouse, i said rap TENDS not rap ALWAYS.

anyways, thats just what i think. sq plays a role in every situation, its just the matter of how much its applied. as for rock, jazz, etc they need more SQ to sound good than rap, hip hop, etc would.

Well of course! You gotta have a good sounding SQ system so you can hear people freely voicing their opinions on b!tches and hos with style!
