12" SI MAG box question

[brypink 10+ year member]

I was thinking about running 2 12" SI MAG's in a sealed box (for SQ). I figured out the box volume with a Qtc value of .707 and it was .711 ft^3 (per sub). If my calculations are correct.

I was wondering if this sounds small and if anyone has run or is running one in that small of a box? Did it sound good? What are/where you powering it with? Mine will be powered by a Zapco 9.0.

Any help grateful. Thanks.

Yeah, I saw the recommended box size...I was just wondering if anyone was actually running them in that small of a box and how they sound.

I know when I get mine they will have enough power running off my 9.0, so I'm not worry about that.

Thanks guys for the input so far!!!!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/thumbsupwink.gif.129404938effda6ad9cca39e7f4b58a3.gif

I ran one in about .8 cubic feet and it sounded great. You will have no problems at all running them in that enclosure.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif
