Theres your box designs. I am doing ported and I guarantee it will do fine in SQ

For sq if you port, go low. Most stay under 35hz. The lower you tune it the less boomy the subs. My latest setup is 2 10 w7 @ 500 rms 1.6 cubes slot ported to 26 hz. A full rms load would yield 145-146 depending on efficiency of electrical components. 3 sealed would do the same number provided sub rms was fulfilled. A well designed ported box will sound almost as good as a well designed sealed. But the sealed will always be a hair better. Proper mixing with an eq can correct the tuned frequency for flat response and make the ported sound as well though.For ported you need someone to build with a lot of experience to do it right. Almost any monkey can slap together a sealed box with guidance. So definately get a member with experience to build and request a video or be there in person so you can learn. Because box design is as important as sub choice in sq.
