    Free Shoe University is a dumpster fire. F 'em.

    Thanks man. I have a few Cane friends. They're pretty damn loyal fans. Too bad we don't play more often. I was in the Swamp in '08 for the Miami game. Go Gators!

    Looking for a 12" that takes 500w RMS

    I'm definitely not that person, lol. I'm completely open to input. I know I need to look more into tuning and everything that goes along with it before I make any decisions. I'll probably be MIA for a few days while I look into it. Worst case scenario is I build a second box and I don't like...

    Does 1.75 tuned to 30Hz sound right? It's a Sketchup model from SSA, their small ported design. It's with the Demon stuff. Filename is labeled DCON, but maybe their close enough in build that this box works for both?

    Looking for a 12" that takes 500w RMS

    I just don't want to lose that quick, punchy metal music kickdrum. I really like that hit you in the chest feeling. Rap is a novelty that I don't really care about, hitting the low lows and whatnot. Meh. I would be interested in going ported if the frequency response is right for the music I...

    Looking for a 12" that takes 500w RMS

    I'm thinking about giving it some more power. I'm looking at an 800w amp that takes an 80 amp fuse. According to this chart, I should be able to run 8ga the 6 or 7' I would need it. I have a distro blocks that are 4ga back to the battery and ground. Would it be safe to run 8 ga for the 7' run...

    Looking for a 12" that takes 500w RMS

    One thing for sure is that I need some sound deadening. The sound difference between stopped and 60mph is night and day. It's actually not terrible when I'm stopped or moving slowly. I'm wondering if I'd be happier with a 10" sub with lower power handling requirements. A 10" would allow me to...

    Yeah, I get it. I'm considering my options.

    Looking for a 12" that takes 500w RMS

    I'd imagine ports would have to be pretty unobstructed. That box would work if I turned it with the 13x21 side facing down. If I could work the sub onto the biggest face with a slot or aero port(s) on the same side, I could do it. That's going to be tough with the depth of the sub mounted that way.

    Looking for a 12" that takes 500w RMS

    Im assuming since those are areo ports, I can tweak the overall dimensions to fit my space, as long as I keep the overall volume of the box the same?
