12" sub in 4cubes tuned to 32-34???

I believe he's referring to box efficiency, which he is right in that regard. A bigger box will create a larger peak, but mechanical power suffers. The reason why people do small boxes for spl is so they can throw an ungodly amount of power at the sub and not have to worry about it tearing itself apart. The added power makes up for the lack of the larger peak in those cases. But box wise, bigger box and port = more efficient with larger peak.

correct. so plz stay humble instead of accusing ppl of misconceptions. thank you. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Assuming you're talking about the new XXX, RE recommends 2.2ft^3 on their site for the 12"er...don't know where you're getting 4ft^3 from. They do recommend 4ft^3 for the 15 though.

the XXX series uses MUCH more room than the RE site reccomends, they almost always function better in oversized boxes. ask anyone who owns one.
