[QUOTE="xxrcm619xx, post: 8284920, member: 661855"] Alright, I bought 2 alpine shallow 12s. I have them behind my rear seats of an 06 silverado crewcab (4 door). My sealed Box was bought off of the super sound crew website. When purchased i gave them my sub specs to be built for the set of alpines i have and it is not really built to it. It sounds great still, but i want to go up and beyond. So my question here is has anyone built a ported box for shallows? Is it not recommended? I do want to keep my seats in the rear, so will the little space i have be a huge problem? i do plan on building my self, but before i do i want make sure i dont wwnt to open amd huge can of worms.....[IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/uhoh.gif.c07307dd22ee7e63e22fc8e9c614d1fd.gif[/IMG] Here is the specs for my sub Subwoofer SeriesType-R (Alpine) Subwoofer Size12" Peak Power Handling1200*watts RMS Power Handling600*watts Voice Coil(s)Single Impedance (Per Voice Coil)4*ohms Frequency Response26 - 200*Hz Sensitivity84*dB Xmax (millimeters)15*mm Subwoofer DesignRound / Circle Main Cone ColorBlack Woofer CompositionAluminum Woofer SurroundSantoprene Rubber Subwoofer GrilleOptional (Accessory required and sold separately) Alpine KTE-12WG Re-Cone Kit AvailableNo Recommended Enclosure Specifications Recommended Enclosure TypePorted / Vented Sealed Minimum Sealed Box Volume0.40*cubic feet Maximum Sealed Box Volume0.75*cubic feet Minimum Ported Box Volume1.0*cubic feet Maximum Ported Box Volume1.5*cubic feet Top-Mount Depth3-1/2" Cutout Diameter10-15/16" Shallow Mount InstallationYes [/QUOTE]
