Depends on the sub

why?- because each particular driver responds differently to each enclosure.

If you don't care about SQ, ported will almost always be louder. Best bet IMO is get a sub that works well ported so you have the output and the SQ.

I agree with what Rybaudio said. As a wise man known as Dukk used to say: Know your spl, port your box! (Or something similar to that)
