    custom box versus factory box, kicker dcvr12

    Lil Wyte as well. Some of the lower notes feel as though they are shaking the car like an earthquake, but most of the low notes that should be there are almost nonexistant. my car will have the Fi BTL in a bandpass box ported to the passenger footwell tuned to about 32hz (i drive a Fiero, so...

    custom box versus factory box, kicker dcvr12

    So, we've got a DCVR12 2ohm kicker setup, straight from the factory. How much would a custom made box for the two CVRs improve their sound and performance over the factory DCVR12 box? And what should it be tuned to? I've read that the factory box is tuned to 38hz. Is that too high? Lastly, it is...
