Well, I've been throwing the idea of a ported box around a bit, actually. One thing is that the sealed box will be smaller. I'd still like to have a little trunk space left over. Naturally I want it to be loud, but I want it to be clear, too. I listen to pretty much every kind of music- rap, hip-hop, rock, metal, country, classical. You name it. Basically I know I'll be more than happy with the sealed box, and I know I might be a little happier with the ported, but I dunno man. It's a tough decision for me. I think it'll boil down to how big I can stand the box being.
