If you went from a sealed to ported enclosure, then went to say a 600 watt amp. your would get a gain of 9db and maybe a little more from cabin gain. But For SQ I would really go with a sealed box, Or if you are going ported use a slot ported box, and use a program where you can find out your vent speed. Like Win Isd. I would not tune above 35 hz. I am tuned personally to 32 hz for daily driving

i run 100rms to two mb quart 12's and it gets plenty loud....soon to be 150 clean rms.

If you want boomy bass...you dont want SQ. SQ is tight responcive bass. you want SPL sound. I suggest making a folded horn, the box will be big, and the lower power is a must. BUT if built right it'll be really awesome sounding.

I need quality equipment, feel free to donate.
