[Puppet Master 10+ year member]

I am going to be making a fiberglass enclosure soon and am looking for a good sub to go in it. The enclosure will be sealed. Not looking to go too expensive here. Either 1 12 or 2 12's...I WAS gonna get a BL then i realized there will be no port on this box....Type R's? Something Eclipse? help!

I was going to recommend a Soundstream Ref 12 But I remembered That I have a Soundstream Van Gogh 12 that would be perfect! Its a SQ 12 and is made for Smaller sealed boxes. Ill let it go for a good price. PM me if you want it.

What are you looking for? Something that's just as loud as possible without regard for how good it sounds, vice-a-versa, etc?

I think tc3k was asking about how large the enclosure is guestimated at being.

I was thinking the same thing. He's probably just looking for a good sealed box woofer.
How much cubic ft. will it be & what kind of budget you got for the sub(s)?
