PLEASE HELP!! Air Specs On 12w3v3

[davesanchie 10+ year member]

Hi everyone,

I am Dave, who is new to this awsome site. I would like to get some help from you expericed audio techs.

I have a 2004 Cevy Avalanche and I recently bought this midgate box (http://subthump.com/avalanchemidgate.htm) As you might have noticed it has 1.17 air space for each section (2 sections). I would like to add the 12w3v3 subs to this box.

My question is, Do I have enough air space for these sub-woofers to function properly? without any harm? If it's to little or to much, would they still be okay and sound good? Please post your input of this issue. Thank you!

Dave

The JL's use 1.25 Sealed

Just buy the JL Stealthbox

lol A little to late. So the box allows 1.17, is that going to make a difference? Any harming to the sub?

you won't hurt the sub by running a small box (if it fits in the first place) it just won't sound as good as it might otherwise

you can put some polyfill in it and trick it into being bigger. there's a formula to find out how much but im sick with the flu and i dont really care about this right now
