Generally, ported will be louder and a bit boomier, but will not hit as clean. Sealed enclosures are best for a good sound quality setup.DMan II-40 wrote:I did a sealed box, and I am in the same boat as you. I don't know crap about audio, I just know how to wire SOME stuff up if I know where they go, lol. I forget exactly what the difference is between ported and sealed. But all I know is sealed boxes are generally smaller and I wanted it to be compact.
For a first install, that looks beautiful. My first car stereo install didn't look nearly that clean. Heck, my second car wasn't even that clean. I finally got it right on my third try. Nice work!
