[QUOTE="Raven, post: 690728, member: 558368"] [I]Still throwing around ideas before I take a saw to MDF...[/I] 187s like larger boxes. For the 12s ported, IA recommends 2.25 cubes per sub or more along with a huge 60^2 inch port. For sealed, it's more like .75 to 1.5 cubes a sub. I believe that bass is best when [I]felt[/I]. Knowing that, would it make more sense to have a large sealed box, or a small ported one? Right now I use a small ported box, and it's already tuned pretty high, but the output isn't quite what I was hoping for. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
