Choosing between sealed and ported is one of the biggest decisions in car audio.

Sealed Boxes

• Tight, clean bass
• Smaller size
• Best for sound quality

Ported Boxes

• Louder output
  
• Deeper bass
  
• Requires tuning

Which Should You Choose?

• Daily listening → sealed
  
• Loud bass → ported
  
• Mixed use → depends on preference
  

Both options are good—it depends on what you want out of your system.
