[QUOTE="VereChronicus, post: 1837029, member: 565864"] Pair of 15's in 13 net cubic feet enclosure with 250 square inch vent, 18" long. That is a guaranteed pavement buster. Anything less would be a mockery of your intelligence and ability to spend money wisely. That box is the first thing. Second is the subs that can handle an enclosure that efficient......
