[QUOTE="fixinit, post: 8536452, member: 670893"] I subjectively disagree that a pre-built ported has no chance of sounding good. The dynamics of my car make for an extremely forgiving audio experience as long as system tuned, can sound good with some less expensive equipment. The Mofo has loosened a tad and it's surprisingly been a great bargain tonality-wise. I based that purchase off Amazon, SonicE. and subwoofer website reviews. For $115 I'm not sure if I could have gotten a driver that would match the load from my amp and its "showoff" capability. The prefab is alright but could have gone bigger. I didn't risk it because I needed something lighter, front-ported and able to fit in a particular area of my trunk. There's a specific place in my trunk where this type of box creates an enjoyable soundstage in the driver's seat. It hits a little muddy with some songs but clean, deep and loud with others. This is why.... I'll be working on a plug for the surface-level port to hear how it sounds "sealed". I think an interchangeable prefabbed ported box with custom put-or-pull vent seal is a creative and smart way to approaching a low cost system that might kick some serious butt. [/QUOTE]
