sealed, ported, or bandpass

i just wanna know what everyones opinion is on speaker boxes. whats the best one:sealed, ported, or bandpass? i have heard that u might lose sound quality with some but i wanna know different opinions

best for what? personally, i don't like boxes because i need trunk space, therefore i go with infinit baffle. But if i had to pick, it would be ported tuned low. :cool:

My opinions:

Sealed - good transient response, not enough low end
Ported - much louder, much better low end if tuned low, high end suffers slightly, but that really depends on the sub (by high I mean 60-80hz)
Bandpass - unless you build it perfectly for your exact sub, it will be very peaky at one frequency and pretty much suck for music

My preference is a low-tuned ported box, something in the high 20's at the most.

i have a 97 explorer so i have all the space i need basically because its just going in the back cargo area. would it make a difference with all that extra air space?

is this box ok? (http://www.sonicelectronix.com/viewitem.php?id=1862#)

nah nah you for got one vented is the way to go
it will sound way better and it will take in more air
so that your subs hit harder
