JL Audio 12w6 v2 Box Help ~~~~~~

[Matt0528 10+ year member]

hey i have a JL Audio 12w6v2 in a sealed box (facing down) right now with 700 watts going to it and it hits way hard, but i was wondering if a ported box would be louder?

im happy with the tight clean hit, but i want it to be louder even if that means taking away some SQ.

~~~ what should the demensions be on the box and the port... and drawings or input would be appreciated, thanx

i had 2 12w6v2's and i wouldnt send it 700w in a ported box. i had them both sealed with about 650w and it loved it. if i were you id just stay sealed or cut down your amount of power.
