    RE Audio SE12D4 or Alpine SWR-1242D

    No, its 1.2ft3 before sub displacement, so it will be 1.05ft3 after sub is installed....is that going to affect sound quality....i just want it to hit the lows well and get pretty loud while sounding crisp and clean and not bottoming out.....

    HELP!! Building Ported Enclosure

    Hi, I've been reading up on how to make a vented/ported enclosure for a Alpine SWR-1242D powered with a Alpine MRP-M500 @ 2ohms. Is this box plan good for this subwoofer?? I've never built an enclosure before but I'm sure I can do it. Thanks for all the help!!
