[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8478837, member: 650438"] They are Mobile sound works boxes. Guess what, their headquarters is down the street from me in santa ana. They use specs for a much beefier sub and their company gets bombarded with 1 star ratings on yelp. They use minimal wood glue and much less wood then you think, they just put the big baffle to fool you, underneath is like 1/2 MDF on all the other sides. When you put weak subs in these boxes, its not gonna work out too well. You need a proper box with proper port area matching the electromechanical specs of your subwoofer. The box is designed around the subwoofer not the other way around where you try to make a sub act nice inside a random box. two 12s would be louder on the lower frequencies... if you actually attempt to build a proper custom ported box. In terms of overall spl though, two 15s should match two 12s ported pretty well all things considered. [/QUOTE]
