[QUOTE="Gunny A, post: 8794178, member: 686148"] Hello everyone, first post here, but I have been reading a lot of info from the forum. You guys are awesome! So on to my question that I couldn't find an answer to: I just ordered 2 JL 12W3V3-4 subs and a JD1000/1 amp. They seemed to pair together well with 500 watts RMS at 2 ohms. I am building a sealed box for them (first timer) with 3/4" MDF. Volume is 1.125 each so total of 2.25. The enclosure would fit better and look better if it was built a little bigger than spec. I have been told that 20% over spec (2.70 ft^3) is still safe, but wanted to verify that with you experts. Any insight you could provide is greatly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
