Vented and ported are the same. Closed, or sealed is the same.

Box size varies by sub parameters. Bigger can be better, but it depends on the sub parameters, and your sq/spl goals. Bigger enclosures are more efficient.

Type of box depends on what type of bass you want from your system.

Do you have a particular sub in mind, or are you asking a general question?

I like sealed boxes, they are the easiest to tune. You don't have to worry about port noise or anything.
