    At least not to MY ears. And since it would be in MY car, a sealed box is what I prefer. That's the thing about sound, it's all subjective.

    Keep in mind that wasn't a shot at you or your products, I just like the sound of sealed boxes better.
    I am personally a fan of sealed boxes myself, but the gain you get with a nicely designed ported box is hard to beat. If the port is designed well and takes into consideration the sub you'll be using it can be unnoticable.

    I think it was two or three years ago that I heard dipole bass, talk about effortless / clean sq bass that you can't get with a sealed or ported box.

    Something like this, but obviously won't work in a car so much:

    I HATE sealed boxes because they sound slow and murky, with piss poor detail.

    I HATE port noise and have NEVER heard a ported box I like.

    Sorry to derail the thread, back to your normal scheduled programming.
    I actually have a guy wanting just that.

    The challenge is that once a box is over about 3.2 cubic feet, it no longer fits in the trunk opening.

    Shipping would be the killer. If you can find a guy in the US military, I can ship to a "APO" address no problem.

    OK, maybe a little more money and its slow, but it worked last time.

    Figures, that's what I got!

    Mind if I PM you with some questions. Trying to sort out the audio in my car and it seems many individuals on this board turn to you for advice.
