Ported box is the box with hole-bass very noisy,mostly for SPL ppl or u like heavy bass....
While Seal box is totally seal & no air space...--bass more soft & kick
I think you should get your facts right.... Ported vs Sealed enclosure. Dont just jump into conclusion that ported is for SPL and sealed is for SQ.
And what is soft bass and kick bass?????

Bass in sealed box not so noisy... the bass effect might be shorter than ported box...
Will you explain it further, how a same freq. (lets take 30 hz) will play shorter in sealed and longer in ported???

Agree with loon1031 here...ported box bass is heavy bass when u play ur car audio while driving, at outside others ppl can hear the bass quite loud.....
Where else Seal box can't hear much at outside....when u hear seal box bass u will forget about the ported bass box...
Have you ever heard of sound dampening and what is it for???? So it means when I don want to hear bass outside of my car, just do a sealed box??

Normally SQ go for sealed box...
Another generalization..... SQ = sealed , SPL = Ported.

actually for me i think its depends on the woofer my old rf woofer do a better job at a seal box but my new kicker done a better job in a ported box when i use a seal box for my kicker the bass is noisy n dont give me good kick bass
Actually, its the box that makes or break the sub. Not vice versa. Good sub + wrong box = wrong bass. For your case, I blame the box rather than the sub.
