    Definitely the 4 12"!! I used to have a 94 blazer I had 4 12" infinity reference and the kicker kx1200.1 it was amazing. I had the 4 twelves pointed straight up with port straight up. I probably built 10 different boxes and tried all different setups. To me pointing up sounded best!!! Good luck man

    Sorry bro, not in the cards. Like the new design, and I'm not waiting on NSv3's. Plus I think your definition and mine of "great" are a little bit different.

    Hmm, I would do the 4 12's for obvious cone area reasons. Now say 25-80 is a good deal of a range, in my opinion. I would rather see you bring that down around 60 hz. If you want SQ-ish setup then your mids/midbasses should play down that low. I think you may consider aeros here forsure.

    That's a good call, I'm looking into crossing lower. What's the reason for aeros here? Just space savings?
