I currently have 2 cvx 12's in 4.5@33hz.....gets loud enough for me. Powered by a Mb Quart pab1200.1 which is 1200x1@1ohm. Anyways, I would like to have more room in the back of my Suburban for road trips and all that i take with my family. Anyone have any experience with cvx's sealed? And if so what size box should I biuld for them. Im going to keep my ported enclosure,just would like the option to switch it up whenever i feel like it. Also,if i go sealed,will me being a lil short on power with about 300 watts make that big of a difference?

we tested the cvx sealed and it had a VERY flat response and sounded very very nice. Let me grab the link to the test results

Driver Notes:

* Build Quality is Excellent

* SPL Box testing was stopped @ 1000 watts RMS, due to woofer approaching mechanical limits

* Woofer should not be ran with power levels over RMS spec, with musical content

Special thanks to Tracy Focht, and Kicker for providing this woofer for testing. You can check them out at

NP bob, the CVX was by far one of my favorite drivers from the test session.

i did a build for a friend of mine who has two cvx 12s. Before the build he had then in a sealed box that looked rather small...if i had to guess id say maybe a cube for each sub. they sounded great and had a flat response.

I actually had a cvx 15" in 3.5@35hz. I liked it,it did go deep,but i prefer the 12's over the one 15". The 12's just makes my eyelashes move and vibrates the inside of your ear. This was also in my suburban. The 15" was port/sub facing back. The 12's are subs up/port facing back,which i think sounds better in my vehicle.
