I know two Identical is preferred, but does that mean all four should be the same?

Or two Identical up front and two Identical in the rear, but the two front and the two rears are different.

Reason I am asking, I have heard about the subs should be from the same maker and same size. What about ported and sealed boxes mixed together, I havn't read anything about that mix.

I am thinking about making two more subs. I already have two ported upfront, but I am thinking of making the two new ones sealed and in the rear.

Upfront (2)12 inch Ported sub's \
-------------------------------------Both Amps: 300 watts continuous --- 650 watts max
Rear (2)10 inch sealed sub's /


What would that sound like? Any Idea's from anyone.
