[QUOTE="drwang, post: 2339340, member: 565188"] I just got the enclosure finished yesterday. It's meant for the 12" BTL but I don't have an amp to power it yet, so in the meantime, I'm just substituting a RE HC 12". Two different worlds but yea, it's just temporary. The enclosure is fiberglassed at the bottom to fit the mold of the tire well and it was supposed to be 30-40sqin of port area but I ended up getting this instead =(. I'm still talking to the builder on his reasoning for this setup instead. Anyways, here are the pics. I have side by side comparisons of the RE HC and the BTL. I'm saving up $$ for a class D amp to power the BTL. Til then this is what I have.
