Haven't gotten them yet, but I think I'm gonna start building a box for the dual RE8's I'll be running here shortly.

I've planned on running them in a ported box, so I went to RE's site and found that the ported specs are .5cuft with 32hz tuning. Doesn't seem all that big to me, but hey, what can you do? Anyway... What I'm wondering... I'll be running 2, so that's going to make it 1.0 cuft right? Should I split the one box into 2 different sections? How exactly do I figure the hz tuning on a port? I'll probably be running 32 like RE suggested, but I might go different if you guys have any better suggestions.

The ported idea is also up for change because I'm not entirely sure how that's gonna sound in my SQL, so if you guys think I should run sealed, I'll do it.

Thanks for any inputs.
