There is no better sounding box, it just depends on what kind of response your looking for from your subwoofer. If you like rap music with long bass tones than a ported or bandpass enclosure is probly your best bet. but i mostly lesson to rock so i like the punch and response of a sealed enclosure. those who see it at the meet will agree it sounds incredible.

the superior "box" is infinite baffle :lawl:

but again, if one can't make a vented box sound good with, say, rock...one should stick with a hard-to-make-wrong sealed box.

I am surprised by this comment. I have had great success, borat. lol with these power bass subs. There quality is great and there pricing is very accurate. This is PB12 M series which is 350rms and 750 max im running an old school orion 2150sx at 300 rms and it sounds fantastic.

lots of average subs sound good till you hear a truly amazing one :lawl:

plus, sub-80Hz distortion is pleasing to 98% of the population...

but in the end, i commend you for going the custom route instead of just a cube in the trunk. well, as long as everything is fastened securely to the car :icon_axe:

agreed that distortion levels is what can make or break any good or bad subwoofer. and thanks for the complements. :thumbsup:

I have actually build ported enclosures before. I had one in my accord with 2 orion 12's sounded good but the box was massive and i didnt want a massive heavy box again weighing me down. so yea i took the easy way out and made a sealed enclosure, but i couldnt be happier.
