CarAudioMag.com :: Latest News- Kenwood Compact AmpsBack in the day, the car audio customer didn’t feel like he was getting his money’s worth unless the woofer or amplifier he bought weighed at least as much as his spare tire. Surfboard-sized amplifiers and subwoofers that required a trailer for the magnet were all the rage. An added benefit was that you only had to pay for lowering the front of your ride—the […]

There was everything from a JDM Lexus to the ubiquitous Scions to classics and new domestics. Low-end (yeah, there were definitely some of those, but we ain't sayin […]
- Spring Break Nationals 2010 - SQ CarsNot a lot of people knew that the IASCA Finals was taking place in the hall opposite from where the show cars were. It's unfortunate that a lot of people missed the SQ cars. Some of them were as custom as the show vehicles, maybe even more so.

The two sides were very different, but not so far apart. The focus for SQ cars is great audio reproduction while a show car is really about the overall look.

ported IS vented
there are 3 basic types of boxes
sealed: one side of the speaker is in a sealed container
ported/vented: one side of the speaker is in a ported container

i would go with the vented and if you plan on building your own box i would get someone to design the box for you because the size of the port is everything

To me, it depends on the type of music you listen to and how much room you have to spare. A ported/vented box is bigger then a sealed box. I prefer sealed boxes because I like the tight bass for my Heavy Metal / Rock music. But I think ported sounds better for cRap.
