Ported vs vented box

[joerodd 10+ year member]

I am still rather new on the whole car audio scene. I have some experience with doin some installs for my self and a coupla my friends. I have some knowledge about speakers/subs, HU's, wiring, but when it comes to boxes...I am totally in the dark. So any way, what is the diff between a vented and ported box? And waht would you suggest for to alpine 12's in a ford taurus trunk (not huge but not small), we are looking for hard hitting. And based on that ne suggestions on where to get some plans for that kinda box.

i am amazed that argument lasted so long....geez, its not a hard concept

they both have the same function. lets agree on that. they are different designs though. I personally regard a port to be a circular opening, usually made from a PVC flange and /(or cardboard) tube. I personally regard a vent or slot port as a rectangular or square shaped hole with no flanged opening. Just the way I look at it, but correct me if I'm wrong.
