Opinions on a box for a DD 2512

[Moble Enclosurs 10+ year member]

curious responses here. 2.5 with a 6" aero tuned at 38-39 will get you the results your looking for. It will play fairly low but still have a lot of "kick". I have a lot of hands on experience with these subs, not just spewing out random generalized bs.

Random? Generalized? May I ask who you believe is random and generalized? I find it surprising to hear someone say that.

You never mentioned how much power you were planning on running to this sub?

it shouldn't matter, build the box to control the cone and you are fine till the coil burns.

Don't get your ******* in a bunch, I was more or less referring to whoever said tune to 33hz. But feel free to show us some enclosures you've designed or built that prove your advice is the best.

This doesn't sound like your kind of woofer based on the first post.

nevermind, I just reread the op's first post and saw he was looking to play up to 70hz with authority. LA crx actually had the best recommendation for you then. 2.5 will have to steep of a roll off.

Nobody is upset kid. Calm down,lol. Anyhow, you shouldn't have to challenge my expertise if you know who I am. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif. Anyhow, if you're done trying to contest, let us focus on the OP. Its his thread...respect it.

OP, let us know how you make out! I'm excited for you. Hope you find your key tuning for your preference and have enough insight with all of the recommendations here now! Plenty to go by,lol.

I was just gonna run it off an AQ750.1 unless I decide to buy something to drive it a bit harder. To Buck, IDK i've heard these can sound pretty good in the proper enclosure. I run 2 JL W1v2 12's (sound better than you might think) in a sealed SQ type setup normally. I bought the DD for a project to mess around building a box for & test & such.

Kid? really, kid? You're going to straight up insult me and then try to turn this into "oh let's focus on the op". That's exactly what I was trying to do. And challenge your expertise. Sorry, I don't know who you are. Are you special because of your website with cookie cutter designs? Funny, I did not see many builds. We are in very different parts of the country so I obviously don't know you or your work and you obviously don't know me. Does that make either of us wrong or right? Absolutely not. Like I said, my comment was directed towards whoever recommended 33hz tuning for this sub. Somehow you took offense to that and decided it would be a good idea to insult me.

I've used the 2500 pretty much any dd extensively.

2 tuned to 36 is perfect for a nice musical ground pounder..

just give it 25"^2 of port area..

2-2.25ft^3 with a mid 30's tuning worked great in the couple of instances that I got to play with the 2512.

You're amusing. Well, your comment was fugged up and I speak my mind. could have been like everyone else and just made a recommendation for him, but you had to insult someone else in the process. Doesn't feel so good does it....to be insulted? Me, idc. Say what you want to me. I've been through more important discussions before,lol. And heard much worse. So, like I said, please concentrate on the topic. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
