Car Audio Noob Needs Help

[quote=“greg23,post:18,topic:36994"”]

Vented and Ported are the same thing, they are both bass reflex enclosures. “Vented” is common term used when using a bass reflex enclosure in which the face of the port is rectangular, and usually uses 3 sides of the enclosure as walls for the port. “Ported” is a common term when using a circular port tube. F3 is calculated the same same way in both styles, cause its the same thing.

If you think bandpass is cheap and ebay junk, I would suggest brushing up on your box design skills. Properly designed 3rd, 4th, and 6th order boxes can be very impressive in the car audio world.

Exactly, but I was trying to get him to realize that he is a dumbass with what he said.

Any enclosure is junk if it’s not properly designed and constructed; both car and home audio.
