[QUOTE="shakenfake, post: 8757983, member: 683732"] I bought a sub box back in high school to run two 12s I bought on the cheap. I was a little bit of a smooth brain then and did not take into account box volume and using the proper amp. My current/old setup is 2 kicker 12s, can't remember the exact model off hand but I can find it when I get off work I believe they are rated at 650 RMS, and a Lanzar heritage HTG558BT that I got for free. I was running both subs off their own dual channel 1000 Watt segment. I have definitely blown one of them as it sounds as if it is underwater or something whenever it hits. I will have another thread about my new set up soon after I get some answers to these couple questions. I bought this box [URL]https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0052QDQP8/?tag=caraudiocom-20[/URL] it says that it has a net volume of 2.24 but then it goes on to say .63 for each sub. How is that possible? I must be missing something here because I don't get how you go from 2.24 to .63? Next question, did I screw myself buying this box? Because if it really is .63" for each sub then how the hell do you fit two 12s in there and actually have them sound nice? After blowing one sub I'd like to change my whole set up and make sure I do it right this time. [/QUOTE]
