[QUOTE="IamDeMan, post: 2700658, member: 557673"] first thing, 1x 12" will not equate to sounding like 1x 12" in a car. Cabin gain won't be your friend as much in this scenario, so you will have considerably less output especially on low notes. Secondly 1.3 cu ft. may give you some sound but is hardly going to be optimal in an HT setup. The speaker also won't handle 500RMS in a sealed enclosure(mechanically). Remember that thermal ratings aren't the same as mechanical. If you want to remain with a sealed enclosure, then you will have to bring the volume up near 2 cu ft or more IMO. This will decrease your overall output though. A tuned enclosure would more than likely give you the sound you desire though. If you want the same output you feel in your car, then I suggest you buy 7 more Titanics [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif[/IMG] If music is all you care about in way of performance then go like 3 cu ft tuned to 25. For movies and music go 4 cu ft tuned to 20. [/QUOTE]
