I have been reading about boxes and I wanna get a ported box now. But on crutchfield it noted that I will get a muddy sounds from the ports and what the hell is a muddy sound? I have a single 12 solobaric and only pushing 500 watts RMS and since I listen to alot of music wit low bass notes, a ported should do me good. Who all is using a ported box and what kind of results are you getting.

 

a sound produced when the enclosure/and or port are the wrong size. check with the manufacturer to find out what the correct enclosure and port size are. muddy sound bad!!!

 

How much more bass will a solobaric produce in a ported box

 

ok how much of a difference will it be in a ported. WIll I be able to tell the differ or not. I am new to the ported box game so any help will be useful

 

i would stick with a nice sealed enclosure. just my .02

 

ported often aplifies some frequencies but doesn't produce others at all.. so some beats will rock the block but others you won't hear at all.. I like sealed better .. that makes .04

 

about frequencies what does it mean when the box is tuned at 40 hz

 

hmmm just a geuss here I don't really know.. maybe thats the frequency it does loudest? and probably does frequency's close to it or something
