Sealed or Ported

[lucusade]

Aiit people,

What d'ya reckon sounds better, and what are the differences between the two types of Sub enclosure ??

Got 2 infinity 10" 1020w subs, which can be sealed or ported. So im wondering what the differences are !!

Cheers matey's :wink: !!

i don't speak english very well so ill do my best, the sealed gives you dry bass and the ported gives you a (how can i say it lol) spongy bass, do you know what i mean? you should have to say the kind of music you listen to, cos the sub enclosure depends on that. If you listen dance or progressive or... you should have to use a sealed enclosure, if you listen rock, metal,... music the ported is the better choice. If you want the car to rattle, use a ported one lol. The ported gives you more spl too (a bigger enclosure is needed)

Ive a band pass one and i like the sound it gives

i only wanted to say that ported gives a different bass, 'dry' or, but i dont know how to say it with the exact words, when i say 'rattle' i mean that its as if you were in front of a 50" speaker and when it moves, your ears move too (i wont say anything next time cos i dont know how.. :?
