Cvr Ported
12" Kicker Cvr. Sealed or ported?
Well soon Im getting a 12" kicker CVR and was wondering what would sound better sealed or ported? I listen to Rap music. Please help
people who say a sealed box is for tight accurate bass or certain type of music and a ported box is more boomy bass and for another type of music...or whatever...ARE DEAD WRONG!!!!
a properly built and tuned ported box will ALWAYS outperform a sealed one. 99% of the ported boxes you buy are boomy and sound like crap, have a high peak somewhere in the 40-60Hz. this is because most manufactures are not willing to spend the money to make quality boxes. (i have corrected many manufacturer's boxes including kicker and hifonics...these guy don't have a clue about boxes...lol) and for this reason, you have people saying why they are good for....whatever type of music and such.
so go to a shop and have a ported one built properly. here are 2 sings of a decent ported box:
1.) the port area (opening) will be 12-16sq" / 1cu' of volume. (this means no less than a 4" port for every sq ft of internal volume....but you see it all the time)
2.) the longer the port, the deeper the tuning and in turn the flatter the response. (for instance, a 2cu' box tuned to 32Hz using a single 6" port (this is ~14sq"/cu') would need to be 33" long.)
or...if your interested, i can design one for you
