does anybody know how to install 15' subs into a dual ported enclosure?
i just bought to 15-inch Kickers and im buying a dual ported enclosure but im not sure if there are any other accesories that i need
its a single 1 voice coil, but also wat would sound better ported, sealed, or vented ?
For the installation I would look for tee nuts and socket head cap screws. They look a lot better and are much stronger than wood screws. Plus you don't have to worry about stripping the holes.

15" Subwoofer
Consumers have many options when purchasing audio equipment and these choices can seem overwhelming, especially when you begin hearing all the technical terminology. If you are not sure what the terms "number of hertz" "ported" or "sealed" is, do not fear, as we are not speaking about the technical aspects but simply the size you need to deliver a deep-sounding bass, which is what bass-lovers everywhere love. Regardless whether you need the speakers for a home theater system or for your vehicle, a 15" subwoofer is the best you can buy for the money and sound quality is definitely the best option.
You may wonder what makes a 15" a better choice than an 8-inch, 10-inch, or the 12-inch subwoofers. With a bit of physics, you can easily understand why the 15-inch is your best option. You hear more bass through the subwoofer when more air begins passing through it. So getting more air to pass means you need a large speaker, which is why the 15" works out best for those that, love bass.
Of course, you want a huge booming base sound, the 15" subwoofers take up a lot of room, so you may have to make some sacrifices, particularly if space is limited. When using it in a home theater system, it does not make much of a difference because you probably have enough room in your home to accommodate the speakers. On the other hand, if you are shopping for your car's sound system, the 15-inch subwoofer is a major factor you have to consider. Therefore, if you just have a very small and compact car, you simply may not have the room to accommodate these speakers. Nevertheless, if you have a larger car or truck, you more than likely have the space needed to accommodate the 15" subwoofers, which in the end will make you very happy.
You probably have a pretty good understand of what makes the 15-inch subwoofer the best size for your home or vehicle. You music lovers that need a daily dose of base, a smaller subwoofer simply will not suffice for you. As mentioned previously, it is a matter of basic physics and of course, you are not going to debate nature's laws. Your subwoofers must have the greatest amount of airflow available in either your vehicle or your home sound system, and a 15" subwoofer is definitely your best option.
