Help with Sub enclosures!!!

[Sip88]

I have a 98 four-door Ford Escort, and I am hooking up a Rockford Punch 250.2 amp to a Kicker Comp VR 4 ohm 12" sub. I am just looking to hook up a good system that will sound good with House music, etc. What kind of enclosure should I use? Do I have enough power to go with a sealed box? The consensus of installers I have talked to seem to think so, but some people are not so sure. I think I have enough power to go with the better sound quality and tighter bass that the sealed enclosure would give me over a bandpass or ported box, but I need some more opinions. For what it is worth, my head unit is an Alpine 7875. Thanks in advance!

Well, kinda allready answered this on your own. The tight punchy bass that house/dance music has, would lend itself better to a sub in a sealed enclosure. -This is primarily what a sealed enclosure is designed for; accuracy, clarity, and punch.

Plenty of power from the 250.2- you're good to go!!

take it easy.
