nothing set in stone but ampere 3.0 12's with two ampere 5k's as for the electrical im going wit lithium and a couple g31's

most 12s can go in 1.8-2.2 cubes.. depends on the MMS and CMS and motor strength.

. if your gona run 10kw id say at least one 300 amp alt and one HUGE lithium battery at the very least..

9 cubes should be fine. Might be able to go a little smaller if running 10k. Maybe go with around 8 after displacement. Not sure what cube is the sweet spot for those subs but maybe someone who has used them can help you out.

9 before sub and amp displacement is going to leave you with like 6 net. I'd rethink my plans. Maybe 1 18 or 2 15s.

It might work if you invert the subs and use a round tube for a port. Otherwise forget going slot or 4 12s

I think I'll just search for subs that works in small ported enclosures

Have you tried contacting ampere audio and asking them what they recommend for an enclosure for the 12"? its not listed on their website. but it has a very low QTS and their site says they can be used in small vented enclosures.
