2 w6v2 sealed or one ported

[jdub486 10+ year member]

I just bought two 12w6v2 and a sealed box for $475 today. I cant decide if I should keep the two sealed or just run one ported. I have about 750 watts rms. What do you think. Can you compare spl and SQ?

1 ported, be careful with the gains, i say that because i don't think 750w is enough to reach full potential with 2 of them. and 1 ported to full potential should be louder and sound just as good as 2 sealed that don't have the power to reach potential. Not to mention you could sell the 2nd one and make some money put elsewhere in the system.

I would say keep the two sealed, but thats just my opinion, I think the w6's should be kept sealed.

Two sealed.

750 is plenty to get two of them moving, they're only rated for 400 IIRC and are fairly efficient.

Plus I seriously doubt a w6v2 will take the power. Point blank. And you know you wont turn your gains down

they are more meant for sealed application anyways, and sound amazing!
