Svs sb13 ultra /pb 13 ultra amp swap

[Stones]

Hello, a friend has a svs sb13 ultra with a bad amp. He was considering swapping it out for a used PB13 ultra amp he found on eBay .
is there any problem with this?
The specs are the same but are there limiters or dsp setups for a ported vs sealed setup that would make this a bad idea?
Thanks

Don't know for sure but could be dsp settings in a sealed sub amp that wouldn't be made for a ported sub. They may be user adjustable, but probably not at a guess

That’s what I thought but wasn’t sure if it would be noticeable .

A sealed sub would normally have some eq to bring up the lowest frequencies due inherent qualities of a sealed sub compared to a ported that wouldn't require such

Yeah. I would pass.
Or email @Ed Mullen at svs and ask for sure.
