ported will be louder.
and sealed with have a flatter response, a.k.a. better-equal, not peaky, coverage of 20-80hz or so.
ported will be louder the closer it gets to your tuning freq. but it should still sound good if you tune low.

...and adjusting port diameter. Remember to keep the air velocity low! We don't want an L7 powered whistle!

I am buying two L7s 10in and was wondering what a good port size is or should I stick to Kickers numbers? Oh and was going to build a custom box in a wedge shape and am not quite sure how to port this because it is a square port!

Any advice welcome
tks
