Depends on the subs you're using.

Re: Sealed or Ported Subs?
I was thinking about getting two JL audio subs probably 10's, i just dont know what would be best sealed or ported, ive been told that ported will sound better due to the size of my car, and ive also been told to go with sealed, so i'm a little confused, anyone got any advice?

Re: Sealed or Ported Subs?
Are you looking for "boom," or are you looking for tight, accurate bass?

Re: Sealed or Ported Subs?
If you want a little of both, just get a bandpass.

You can get away with a smaller amp if you get a ported box, but like you, I like tight bass.

Re: Sealed or Ported Subs?
^you must be thinking box, not amp. you need a larger enclosure should you decide to go ported.
