Best box for SQ?
 
Ported or Sealed?

Depends on the sub too.

ok the sub would be Infinity kappa perfect 12.

Then which box?

I hear the Infiniti is a great sounding sub, with lots of SPL. I would go ported too.

WinISD is a great program IMO, if any of you havent gotten it yet... go check it out.

Sealed almost always has better SQ - "tighter" bass, and a more even frequency response - while ported boxes are generally tuned to a certain frequency, so you get a large bump up in SPL around the tuning frequency.

Go sealed - sounds great, and is simple to build. Just give that Kappa the right amount of airspace - stay in the middle or to the larger side of the recommended range. I popped a Perfect 10 by bumping it in a box that was too small.
