In a room that size you would be better off with a ported sub, vs a sealed box without a boosted low end.

If I wanted tighter and better quality bass, not just more bass, wouldn't I be better off with a sealed sub?

That's a myth. A well designed sub will sound good whether ported or sealed. Placement and proper setup is far more critical for achieving good sound quality.

So would there be any advantage to going with a sealed sub in my situation?

As I said in post #2, you would be better off just getting a good ported sub.

Bass shakers are a gimmicky substitute for real bass. I would save up and buy multiple ported subs like the one Jay suggested. Buy a couple for corner-loading and one for near-field placement, ie right next to your seat or right behind your seat. There is a difference between having something jiggle your seat and having bass punch your chest and rumble your stomach.
