Default what kind of box should i use for cvr kickers

i have 2 12inch cvr kickers and i was wonder if i should have a ported,sealed,or a bandpass subwoofer box?

right now i have a sealed box and it sounds pretty good but it rattles the hell out of my trunk. is there any possible way that a bandpass subwoofer box makes less rattle to the trunk(hatch)-i have an acura integra

less sound = less rattle.

What do you think causes your trunk to rattle....?

LOGIC? You seriously want to invoke logic in a conversation about fake hijackings, missiles hitting the pentagon, and bombs planted throughout the world trade center? I thought it was a given that logic was checked at the door when entering one of these threads.

I'm not, I'm asking you to think about it.
Re-read my original post.

Changing the box dynamics will only affect the frequency "sweet-spot" ranges from box to box, thereby increasing/decreasing the ability of whatever frequency is played. There isn't a special no-rattle box design. The only thing to reduce rattles is to keep the volume down under the "rattling point" and/or add weight to the offending panels that are causing the rattling (dynamat or similar product). You can also just try tightening all those panel bolts down a little more if possible.

You don't have to take offense to every post I make, I gave you the answer, just asking you what else you thought?

Default Sound Deadner

Just my opinion, I prefer sealed boxes over any other style, and here is why a sealed box will give you plenty of bass and keep the bass tighter and cleaner than a ported box( a ported box will give you more bass though) and then band pass boxes are A. cheap crap unless specifically designed for your subs with good thick plexiglass that does not leak and you also lose all frequencies below 40Hz in a Band pass box.

What I would recomend for you is to sound deaden your trunk with some Hush Mat or another brand of sound deadner

I could build a bandpass box that would destroy fqs from 30-40hz or one the is pretty decent from 30-60.
