manofthehour Posted March 15, 2010 Report Posted March 15, 2010 I just got these 2 MTX 12" terminators with the amp that came with it as a set and the box isnt ported and it sounds pretty good but i think porting it would make it sounds better... i really dont know too much on why some speakers are ported and what not... any info is appreciated... and if i do decide to port it whats the ratio or equation to figure out the right port size... thanks.

ATLien Posted March 15, 2010 Report Posted March 15, 2010 Ported will bump way louder but sealed "supposedly" has better sound quality. Download Torres' box tuning calculator here
