Well I have a re XXX 12"

Here are my 2 options.

2.35ft^3 tuned to 29.139hz with 30 square inchs of port surface area.

or

2.12ft^3 tuned to 32hz with 36 square inchs of port surface area.

Which would you choose and why. Or which would work best with this specific Subwoofer.

Do a mix of both... use the bigger box and have it tuned to the higher 32hz. it will be LOUD and the sub will be happy //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

i think its the same box...one with more port area, and both the same length. correct me if i'm wrong.

i would go for the box with 36in port

Yep same box different port area. I was thinking the same thing. Only due to port noise, But was wondering if the jump from 29hz to 32hz was a good idea. I love the lows.

Thanks for the replys.
