[QUOTE="caraudio93, post: 7357161, member: 633518"] I know that car audio fanatics always talk about there being such a difference between sealed and ported, but is there really? I have never had a setup before, but I have heard my friends high end systems, and some of my friends low end systems. There is a difference, but I am not really an audiophile. I finally got around to ordering the stuff for my first setup, and I got an audiopipe amp and an audiopipe 15" TS-VR15. I'm wondering if I should buy a ported or sealed box? I have an extended cab ford ranger. I hear everyone talking about phase and tuning and bouncing the waves off certain spots, but will all of that stuff really make that much of a difference to me personally? Is it better to build a box or just buy one for 40$? and, sealed or ported? Thanks Oh, and I don't just want to be loud and booming. I do care a little bit about the quality, I would like it to be as loud as possible without sounding terrible. I would rather have SQ over SP if it came down to a choice. Thanks again [/QUOTE]
