Sealed vs. Ported Speakers


.
Are ported speakers inherently inferior to sealed speakers? If so, why?

It seems the higher up you go on the speaker pecking order, the ports disappear. Same with subwoofers, ports disappear as the price goes up.

Just curious is a acoustic suspended speaker the same as acoutic vented?

Not to sure but I think there have been some speakers that use a closed mid/high cabinet and a vented (sub)woofer.
