I have a 2000 jeep cherokee and putting (2) 13w7 and (2) jl audio 1000/1 amps with a cap and battery. If you read my other thread i was going to get 2 audiobahns a2300hct but then i changed my mind because jl is just better. Anyways, the installer is going to make my box and wants to know if i want it sealed or ported, and i told him to give me a few days to decide... what do yall think because i want to hit a big number of decibals...

if you want louder go ported. you the room to do it. are you looking for mainly spl? is so these might not have been the best subs for that application, but i digress. also what music do you listen to? i would port it probably no higher then 35 hz.

ported in the 32-35 hz. range should work. don't know off hand what JL recommends as far as volume goes.
