Type R's in 5.7 cubes

[jake21]

how would 2 12" type r's sound in about 5.7 cubes, is that to much?

[bad_trip]

what's recommended for them?

[bad_trip]

also, we would need to know what vehicle it's going in, ported or sealed, tuning, amp, wiring, etc.

type r's love a bigger box, tune it to about 35 hz with about 1500-1800 rms to both subs and should slam pretty nice

I've had experience with 2 R's in a little over 5 cubes tuned to 30hz with over 1000-1200 each and was loud as hell! but they will get stinky quick on low notes!

between 5.4 and 5.8

tune 34-36hz

and do 35-40 square inches of port per sub
