bump!

 

A ported box will allow you to tune the box to a specific frequency to determine how the bass will sound. It also has more output then a sealed box.

Sealed boxes have a smoother response frequency and while lack the output of a ported box will hit hard. Sealed boxes cant be tuned as well.

Both have their benefits.

Heres pics to help you understand.

Me personally i run ported because i like the output. Nothing like a 30hz note shaking your car.

Hopefully david will come along and provide more details on sealed and ported.

 

oh i call those aired out boxes lol

 

naw ported are better i believe... but im really debatin it, but im not gonna be gettin my sounds this month after all

 

Ouch. other things came up?

And it really depends who you ask. A lot of guys into sound quality choose to run sealed due to the smooth response and "impact". "Aired out" has more output and is more peaky.

 

HELL YEA SOMETHING CAME UP!!!!!!! 20" rims for $300!!!!!!!! then ima sell my current rims for like $175 and then buy my sounds

 

Dang sweet deal. Post some pics. And what your old rims look like?

 

And why you taking so long to post

hahaha im not taking long, im waiting for u to reply, ur replying slower than usual!!! but they look like some ricer rims, theyre on ym build thread

 

Well you cant go wrong, 20" for $300 is a steal pretty much. Id rock that. Drop your truck more so you tuck those.

 

i will once i get the cash for drop spindles AND shocks cuz my ride is gonna be stiff once i slap on those 20s!!! but think about it, ill buy those rims, sell mine, then go get my sounds like a month later! woo hoo!!! things r lookin good for me!

 

Yups plus you gonna hook up with that chick. Speaking of shocks, whats a good brand to get? mines are pretty much dead and bottom out, which got me like 1-2" lower. hahahaha

 

haha billsteins are the BEST!!! but expensive as ****!!! i heard toxic are good too, but ima go with KYB

 

choke people down here tell me toxic. Ive also heard a lot of good things about KYB online. Im gonna go to napa in the next few days and get some gas response ones.

 

wuts gas response?? oh n yea im probably gonna get serious with that chick, it seems all good, ima wait a couple more weeks n if it is, ima make **** exclusive, leave all my other chicks

 

I got no idea what gas response is. Supposted to be better. Only thing im worried about is changing shocks and my ride becoming super stiff, i dont want that to happen. Right now its like a boat and bottoms out on bumps; id rather have that then super stiff and feeling every bump.

For shocks we measure from shock bolt to shock bolt right? Do you know what yours is? I think mines was like 15"

And right on with that chick man. I need to find me a chick

 

i got no idea wut my shocks are bro haha i hope theyre all the same

 

someone told me you have to measure to see what length shocks you need. Oh wells, gonna ask when i go down to buy them. Mines might be a little less though since my truck settled more.

Anything else new going on with you?

 

we gotta make like pages for when everyone else comes on so they have to read through all of this "us talking about boring young kid stuff" and be super disappointed when they reach the end.
