Subwoofer questions.

Exactly how tight is your money situation? If you want a ported box, it's better to spend more for a good box, custom-made by a professional.
Also, since those 12s and that amp should be plenty of loudness for you, I'd say a sealed enclosure could be a good fit for you. Smaller box would take up less space, and although I'm sure it depends on the builder, you could probably get a sealed box made for a little cheaper. Or make your own, if you have the tools. And since it looks like you'll be sending 300 watts to each sub, and they're rated for 275, a sealed enclosure a tad on the smaller side would manage the extra power nicely for you.

I'm not an expert on enclosures, so I'll just tell you my situation. You already know the amp/subwoofers I'm talking about. Would the sound differ that much from the ported enclosure, to the little bit cheaper sealed one I linked?

I'm looking for a strong, punchy, low bass sound. Not exactly sure how to describe, basically just for rap music. I've read a few reviews and seem a few YouTube videos, they all say ported is the way to go for what I'm looking for. I'm looking at a ported dual 12" enclosure right now thats running for $85 vs the $45 one I linked.

I just don't have the money for a $170 enclosure ontop of a $100 amp and $120 set of subs, I also have to purchase wiring and a new HU. I'll get back to you on the offer you made me, I'm ordering the set-up I choose Friday so ive got a bit of time to decide.

I'd jump on that HU 1st, I'm sure it won't last too long @ that price //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Just a heads up... I had that Pioneer & Enclosure I offered you with a pic link earlier; on craigslist and it sold...
