[QUOTE="Bangler, post: 8653744, member: 675444"] Apologies it has taken me so long to reply! Thanks to everyone for taking time to help. The manual does say 1.25cubes as a minimum so I bought a box about that size and it sounds terrible. It lacks punch. Up to 50% power isn't bad but after that, it becomes incredible "boomey" - If that's a good word for it. I'm a noob, don't know terms yet. lol. Right now I'm powering a single V122 12" 2ohm sub with a Rockville DB14 2000watt RMS amp in a 1.25cube box. My math works my current box out closer to 1.1cubes though. Its bad. LMAO. If it burns well I'll pull the plates and leave it there... ****, nah I actually like this jeep :( Perhaps a little more back round might help. Its a hard top that I run without doors so its not a sealed unit. Its a summer ride that I like to cruise in. I thought about a generic box and have looked at a few but I really want to go with a custom box. I've rebuilt this Jeep from the ground up with roughly 200hrs of labor and $8000 in parts alone. She looks rough, but its an incredibly well built Jeep that looks bone stock. Everything is brand new. I'm going for a certain look with this jeep, part of the reason I wanted top firing subs. If there are more reasons to not go this route, then there are for it; Ill have to move this "softcore" build over to my 98 Cherokee that I'm currently building. [/QUOTE]
