More rattle in a ported box?
I was considering using a ported box in my trunk, but I was just wondering if I would get more rattle since I have ports which are moving air.

Ported enclosures are a little louder than sealed. If you use 1 ported 10 or 2 sealed 12's.. the 2 12's will cause more rattling.. Which is why you must tighten your trunk latch.

Cheers

Well, right now I have 2 12"s in a sealed box but was thinking of getting a ported box made for them. Is it worth it?

You'll have more low end response with a ported box..... but.... I think it will rattle more...
