Well Kickersubs4life, maybe it's time to trade that Cirrus in for an SUV. lol!

This....

What people don't consider is that a 15" square woofer is same cone area as 18" round. Would say minimum 5cube net per for any half decent performance.

That is not an opinion. That is just what they need/want for optimal performance.

these ones only call for 3.5-5 cubes. i wouldnt give it 5 cubes myself, but i would definitely look into the 4 cube range per.

Those woofers like their airspace. You could try 1, or go sealed. Those kickers will play fine in sealed.

I think I am just gonna build a decent vented box for one of the 15s for the lows and trade my cousin one of my 15s for his 2 12 in kicker solo classics in a sealed box so I will have the highs and lows. At this point I don't think I'm going to fit both 15's in my trunk and I don't wanna have to give up my back seat for a wall for them either.

Those solos are great subs by the way. Had a couple 10's in a tiny little box in my wifes trunk for awhile. Nice and punchy and hit every note. I know some people hate on Kicker but if you get em' cheap enough they're good durable subs... Good luck!

Yeah that's all I have ever owned is Kicker. I stuck with L7s for the longest time but I got a good price on these 15's so i bought the pair. It was either 2 15 in L5's or 2 15 in Memphis C3s. When it came down to it i picked Kicker over Memphis because they were cheaper and I'm hooked on Kicker. So if I stick with my 1 15 and I get the 2 12's I should be set don't you guys think? Instead of getting a headache trying to fit these 15's in my trunk?
