Like the title says, I need a box designed for a TangBand 8. Will be used as a not-so-small home theatre, computer games/music. I'll be feeding it somewhere in the neighborhood of 250W RMS if that makes a diff.Links below for amp and sub, thanks.

no box-builder coud send me plans...? someone....anyone.....

Recommendations are .81 sealed

Im no box builder, just using commonsense on this

Assuming you're using 1/2" mdf, if you made a 12x12x12 box (inches) you'd have about .91' before displacement of the driver and before stuffing

In reference to the group buy, i'm a wholesaler anyways my price is about a dollar or 2 cheaper and I wouldnt need to buy 8 of em. I saw the .81 recommendation too but no one is offering advice on sealed vs. ported. At this point i'm thinking ported around 35Hz. Just need some help getting there.
