RE SE box

[netzero 10+ year member]

I have two 12" SE's right now in 4.5 ft^3 ported tuned low off an AQ1200d. It plenty loud, even too loud right now for me. I was thinking of running one ported or both sealed.

Which would sound better but still get loud enough, one ported to 33 Hz off 800 RMS, or two of them in a sealed glass box of 1,200 RMS? Thanks

Two sealed will sound better plus you will have more total watts.

Two sealed would give a more natural sound and would also have a wider frequency range. Ported is louder, but you trade sound quality and have a narrowed frequency band.

Thats what i figured, do you think the volume would be close?
