I can't even tell if you are being serious or sarcastic. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/redface.gif.62fdbfe1a101588a808c4cff71bcb942.gif

RE reccomends .8

You have a 1ft^3, prob close to .8 after sub disp

No need to make a new enclosure

Well i was told that there is no way i can fit a ported box thats built to manufacture spec in my trunk (2.1 cu ft net), so now i dunno what i am gonna do. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif These are my trunk specs
28" long(left to right)

12" wide(front to rear)

17" deep(bottom to top)

I have no idea where you got your math from but I got 2.49 NET from those dimensions.

But what if i do wanna go ported for better low end extension and more output?

I did not calculate that myself nor say i dont' think a ported box will fit, this is just what someone told me. Did you include port displacement and sub displacement too in that number you got? I don't want to have a small port thats gonna make all kinds of port noise.

NET= no port, no sub

I thought I had read multiple times that it was loud enough or even too loud in your current enclosure, and IIRC your dad even thinks its "silly"

Just wondering why are you hell bent on putting this in a ported box but wouldnt give the RL-p a chance in one?

I really dont give a fuk what woofer you have, as long as your happy. But you dont make sense at all.

Uhh, i thought gross was no port no sub, and net was minus port and sub displacement?

Oh well. Just put some polyfill in for better lower end

Im only thinking of putting it in a ported box because people on this forum and on the RE forum are saying it may sound good as is, but its not even close to its full potential in a sealed box.

Already have 1.5 lbs of polyfill in the box. It actually did help tremendously.

That can be said for most woofers.

The RL-p wasnt even close to its potential in that enclosure either //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

can you look at these specs and see if i can fit a 2.0 cube slot ported box in this trunk?

I do wanna go ported, from what i here, the XXX is great in ported, it gets louder and doesn't lose much SQ at all.
