[QUOTE="TaylorFade, post: 7978070, member: 618111"] The whole "smaller box" thing stems from the fact that you don't need to account for any port displacement. PR's aren't miracle workers for boxes that are too small to begin with. Although, they are pretty da[COLOR=black]m[/COLOR]n good in boxes that are too small. But generally, you'll want them in a box around the same size as a ported. 1.5x the cone area or xmax is the general rule [B]at a minimum[/B]. I've been playing with a pair of 12" PR's lately. The 1cf box with a single 12" and both 12" PR's tuned to 28hz is my favorite. The amount of weight on those things in that box is retarded. Lol.
