Box size for 1 12'' Type R?

[Puppet Master 10+ year member]

Hey all. What size of box do you think I should put together for a 12'' type r? I will be using it daily so also what do you think it should be tuned at? Maybe around 35?

EDIT: It will be a ported box obviously

about 1.75-2cuft. at anywhere from 32-35hz. should be good.

Ya, thanks..That is what I've seen at sights that sell them...

Mine is in 1.75 @32

Most will say 2.2 @32hz...I could not fit that in my trunk!

How much power do you have running to yours, and how loud is it?

I have an Xtant A6001 which does 600 Rms @2ohm....But its not close to putting out 600w. I have my gain half way up or so and it LOUD

All that I am really lookin for is for it to hit the lows pretty hard...Would a larger box tuned the same as a smaller box accomplish this?

the larger enclosure will have an extended frequency response compared to the smaller enclosure, even if they're both tuned at the same frequency.

for that particular sub, i would go with a 2.5cu.ft @31Hz, it frequency response will extend down to an F3:25Hz and will cover up to 80Hz and above. it will sound great with pretty much any song you trough at it.

How many Db would you like to hit approx.? How are you Wiring the sub? parallel or Series?

 

[Jared530 10+ year member]

Im pretty sure that you wont be able to predict the amount of decibles it will hit off the top of your head. never mind
