Yehh...12cu is pretty big...maybe not in ur Tahoe..haha...but in a normal SUV it would take up a ton of room haha
Good Luck man...post some pics when u get it started...i always wanted to try an 18

12~13 cubes is a ****ing big enclosure lol, I ran one in the back of my car in 6.5 off ~1400wrms and it was about as loud as you would ever want to be in a daily setup, any more than that and its just retarted. Two should do just fine //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

u guys are right im just used to having big *** boxes. i have an empty 22 cube box in my tahoe now just wasting space lol. i sure hope these 18s get retarted loud

I wouldnt even worry about that //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

specs dont mean $hit sometimes. i ran my old 15s to kicker specs and didnt give me what i was looking for. some im asking people who have REAL world experience. imo the kicker 15s sounded much better and louder in 3.5-4 cubes each 15 than it did with 6 cubes!

true but like i said ive never ran 18s before so i dont know how the react to enclouser size and tuning and i just didnt want to gamble with going by mf specs again. dont know about u but Real world experience > spec sheet.
