It is the ammount of space inside the box that the sup displaces. Let's say you want a 1.0 cu.ft. box.

If you make a 1.0cu.ft. box and have a sub that displaces .1 cu.ft. You'll end up with a .9cu.ft. net....which would mess up the tune.

I think he was asking about the RE12s displacement, not what the term "sub displacment" meant. At least I hope he meant that.

 
Thanks guys, I appericate it. If I just use .07cu feet will it cause any problems? I dont have to be 'exact' do I?

I was even considering the Cerwin Vega or JBL spare tire subs but can't see imagine they would sound as good as a standard sub in box setup...

One or two, they are still subwoofer outs and are mono summed signals from both left and right. Even the 2 RCA subwoofer pre-outs on the 2nd one...

Be sure to see the sub specs. It should tell you the ideal sealed enclosure size.
