i'd use the HO enclosure but i'd use the 1000/1.

 

[FergieFurg 10+ year member]

HO enclosure? and is there a huge difference between the two amps?

HO enclosure? and is there a huge difference between the two amps?

The box with the red. and the power (500 watts) is difference enough.

run 12 ga and you'll be fine.

 

[FergieFurg 10+ year member]

are you sure thats not too small? someone said like 6 or 8 gauge but im not really sure

If you are talking about the power wire for the amp, use 4 gauge. If you are talking about the speaker wire, it doesnt have to be that big

Have yall ever bought this unit from the second link dimesnionaudio, I gave up on my L7 and decided to get the 10w7 in that ported box, is this a decent box to use with my Jl 500/1v2? it says this unit is new, but didn't know the quailty of the box. Thanks

I've heard some good things about their boxes. I don't think you should have a problem with it
