[QUOTE="MELVILLE, post: 7827876, member: 643481"] My 8 yr old IDQ10dvc finnaly has gone to a better place [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif[/IMG] I have a Type-R 12 (swr-1242d) that I picked up awhile back. I loved the sound of my IDQ in a small sealed encloser and it was'nt over powering. I plan on buying a different woofer in the future, but for now I plan to use the Type-r. I will be using my Alpine MRD-M1001 for power. I don't want bass that is loud and boomy, nor do I wan't my trunk lid to rattle. I have been using WinISD to model some vented enclosure ideas and what I came up with was a vented enclosure of 1.7cu_ft tuned to 22hz. this provided a nice arc similar to a sealed encloser with 30hz at -3db. My original plan was to use it in a sealed enclosure but when I do a search for "Type-r 12 sealed" everyone says they didn't like it in a sealed enclosure. Why ?[IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif[/IMG] So my questions are this. : How does the Type-r 12 sound in a sealed encloser ( about 1.6cu ft) ? : If I build a vented enclosure of 1.7cu ft.I is tuning to 22hz to low ? All comments appreciated . [/QUOTE]
