Alright here it is, ive read countless threads about it, but still not sure, i have 6 hifonics 12s in sealed enclosures the subs are only 300 rms power handling and the sealed enclosures are only 1 cubic ft per sub, i was wandering if a vented enclosure with 4 of the 12s which is 1.4 cubic ft per sub(fairly small vented enclosure) would put out more bass than the 6 12s in smaller sealed enclosures, and the other question is the amp pushing them is a kicker zx 1000.1 i have it wired(subs r dvc's) 250x2, and 125x4, so the amp is stable at 2 ohms, if i went with vented it would do 250x4, is that too much power for the hifonics in a vented enclosure since they r rated at 300rms(i rarely turn it up loud, just like being able to probably play it loud about 20 minutes a day....plz help
 
EW hifonics subs suck...
but to answer your question
Yes there would be alot more bass
sealed boxes kill the backwave of the woofer but increase the bass response
