[QUOTE="VereChronicus, post: 1907416, member: 565864"] The reason why most go ported in the vehicle is because they are extreme bass heads. Since a single 8" subwoofer will do every bit of what an accurate level of sub bass is meant to sound like. That useless bit of info aside....... I like the ability for a system to wake the forefathers of the long since deceased...but also turned down, I want it to be able to track well and not sound like wet @ss. For a 12" to be more accurate and still do some damage in the pressure area, go with a single chamber 3.5 cubic feet net volume enclosure with a single vent of 50 square inches x 24" in length. That will get off fairly well and also play the low notes. And it won't require half of the gain knob that you currently have them set on to get the same output. [/QUOTE]
