Ported subs DO NOT necessarily resonate more than sealed subs. Both designed badly will be bad news.
The real problem is far too many high Qts sub drivers around.
Now the end design will have a Q higher than the driver.
If you choose a a driver with the T/S parameters in the sweet spot, and use a sensible alignment, then a ported enclosure can be very tight and as good or better than most sealed units and a lot more efficient, and far better at coupling to the room.
So how does this happen with so many sealed subs.
Well it all comes down to money. If you have a sub driver with T/S parameters reasonable and want a sealed sub, you will find a very high F3.
So then you need a driver that can handle gobs of power, (none take what they say really) and have to use lots of Eq to extend the bass response.
So if you take one of those awful sloppy drivers, you have a lower F3, need less power and less Eq. Do they sound good, no.
In the final analysis, as I have stated so many times before, there is no free lunch.
If you build a bass system smaller than the laws of physics demand, then you will have a compromised low frequency system in at least one or more ways.
If you don't care how big the enclosure is, it is a fairly easy matter to design an almost perfect bass system
Bottom line, is that between money and size, the route to problems is paved.
One last thought, if it were not for the above issues, no one in their right mind would build a low bass system with a driver in a sealed box. That is absolutely the worst way to use a moving coil driver in an a system for the last octave.
