Be aware that the sealed "tighter sound" claim versus ported is controversial. When the ported subwoofer can use a tune of 16 Hz or so and the subwoofer is properly (freq response wise) integrated into the room there is no longer very much physics to support the "fast bass" claim.

It is those 30 Hz tuned subs located in a bad response location that give cause to the sealed sub "tighter sound" or "fast bass" claim.

Granted that a 25 Hz tune for a ported sub is not the most optimum for music.
So are you saying that the 25-31 plus in its regular tune will sound bad? Loose? My only experience is with small sealed subwoofers. How is this sub rated in terms of sound quality and output? I'd imagine that the sound is horrible out of a tube design.
