Originally posted by mgaidica u should be fine sharing a chamber, although some dont recomend it, IMO as long as ur not an idiot, its not worth the time to make another peice of wood. basically personal preference.

Yeah, i wanna go ported, so it would be a huge pain in the *** to try and port two separate chambers seeing as i need to have both the subs right by each other. BTW, what kind of voice coils do they have?

well w/ a ported box they always share chambers. The SE's are Dual Voice Coil (DVC). Pros and cons of no split chambers...

Pros-

less labor on box, less wood used

slightly more air space

Cons-

one sub blows, the other now has 2x the air space

Well, i knew that much, but i needed to know the ratings. DVC 2-ohm or DVC 4-ohm?

But 2 New Subs from RE with the right care wont be blowing soon anyways right. So, I could just build the sealed box for the 2 with no divider?

oh, well to my knowledge there all DVC 4 ohm. Not sure if they make a 2 ohm?

You think 1 Chamber in a sealed box for 2 10s is alright?

I need the DVC 4-ohm, so that'll be nice. I wanna get the BE amp, so it needs to be ran at 1-ohm.

so now i have one more question. would 2 10's ported with ~1.5 cubes each be better or would 2 12's sealed with ~1.5 cubes each?

 

[BassBoomer 10+ year member]

any one?

bassboomer - I'de say get the 12"s and seal them, and when you get some free time try a 1.5 each ported box, and see if you like it.
