Box for RE XXX?

[ls1pimp 10+ year member]

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

RL-P was sold and shipped out already, no need to keep talking about it please.

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.

28" long(left to right)

12" wide(front to rear)

17" deep(bottom to top)

I TOLD YOU ALREADY

2.49 NET

I would recommend aeroports to cut down on the space its going to take up.

Well, i just had a box builder from this message board tell me i can barely fit a 2.0 net box in that trunk, and it would have a tiny port on it as well, so what do you what me to think? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crying.gif.ec0ebefe590df0251476573bc49e46d8.gif I have all different people telling me different things, some people say i can fit a big box in it like you, while others say i can't even fit the smallest built to spec ported box in my trunk.

I get 3.3 cubes.

SQ is subjectional which has been said a million times.

Aren't round ports infamous for having port noise? My car is an open hatchback so i hear everything that comes from the sub/box.

Ok, Supa and whoever else, pretend you are in my position. You have a 400 dollar subwoofer and its currently in a prefabbed subzone 1 cube enclosure, do you keep it in this box even though it still sounds pretty good, or go for a ported box?

Uhmm, no

I've heard the exact opposite and haven't had a problem with my aeroports.

Keep the sealed.

Its subjectional!!!

Me for instance, I like large sealed enclosures. Id put it in somewhere around 1.3-1.5 sealed.

BUT, AND I CAPITALIZE dont take that as a fact or as something you need to do. That is the type of box that I LIKE.

Keep the sealed.

I know you are an RL-P guy, but do you honestly know a good deal about XXX's specifically, or are you just saying that in a general way?

Used to have 2 15" Brahmas. Absolutely nothing wrong with RE or its subs. Just not the SQ im looking for.

Im not kidding, keep the sealed. You will have less problems
