[QUOTE="car nut, post: 5317"] You can give it a try. I dont' want to give you wrong advice or anything. It's been my experience that bandpass boxes are worth **** all if they're not designed especially for one speaker. Bandpass boxes move lots of air so the air volume has to be correct in order for it to be efficient. My friend had 2 12" fosgates in his car and had a bandpass enclosure. It had 4 ports on it. I listened to it and it sounded like crap. It was sloppy and lacked the boominess you would get from a ported box. It could be different for your subs. I'm not sure. What is the recommended use for your subs? I ask this because soem subs are not made for bandpass use. [/QUOTE]
