are you building a box?

 

[The Camry]

i will be. Trying to decide what cuft i want to use.

 

[Cloud77]

how much power? how many subs?

 

[The Camry]

1 sub. 1000rms.

go bigger if you can

I enjoy my bass but i enjoy my accurate bass more. Im a SQL person. So why bigger?

 

[Dmac1991]

your sub will never see anything around 1k rms steadily, so go with 2.5 and gain some efficiency back for that loss of power due to voltage drop, and impedance rise

I almost never go with the smaller recommended spec if giving a sub its rms rating

Larger is what you want. Larger gives you more output, flatter response, more authority down low.

This is the enclosure Fi modeled for the driver.

yea i was looking at that. Curious. Should i add small 45 degree angles on all the corners for added airflow?

you don't need to if you're following this design
