kind of space limited wit batteries and amps how small of a ported box will work any ideas? the box on sundowns site is way to big for me

On that power it would need to be pretty big. You could go with aero ports and save some room.

you should look into 1 12 or two 10s man. You dont seem to grasp the concept of space makes bass. Shoving a bunch of woofers in a tight space gets you no bass.

2 sa8v2's off 1500 watts will hummm nicely as well.

no i grasp the concept of bass in any space i'm obviously just trying to fin out what is an acceptable small enclosure for the pair i can actually go as big as 6 ft3 or 6 cu.ft. and areo port i was thinking if i go big I've got a 10 in. diameter port i can use go big or go home right just wanted to save a little trunk space.... that's all i already own my equipment but thanks for the space saving input

You can go about 2.6@32-34 htz ported on 1-12..One one heavy ten you could go approx 1.6-2.0 @34-36 htz that Ive had great output with.You could prob go with 1-12 at 2.0 with aero port do nicely,2 of those sa12s in a 2.4 with an aero port.You just need decide what sub and type enclosure you want to with,and go from there.Hell..run that 10 for a bit.A good box for it, may surprise you

Don't listen to this **** lol. If you know you want to go sealed go sealed not everyone needs to go ported nor wants the ghetto banging pos suv. I had a similar conundrum as you when doing my system. I could go smaller and ported or do what I did and I do not regret it for one second it's plenty loud for me.

I'm going 3cuft sealed to start and see where I end up I'll let you know how many do I hit when it's done. I'm out
