box enclosure, should i build one?

[GabeC 10+ year member]

I got 2 cvr 12's coming. I have a box already but it's a circuit city box that i bought awhile back for $60. Powering the subs with a zx 1000.1. Should i build my own box? sealed or ported and what are the best schematics with these subs?

I can build you one if you are interested. I'm in Northeast GA, so if you aren't too far into South Carolina, then you could come pick it up or meet halfway and eliminate shipping cost.

2 cubes each net at around 30hz would be middle ground.

There are better programs out there, but this will give you an idea of what you're up against.

I would say between 3.5-4 cubes total.

Tuned to somewhere between 30-32hz.
