thanks bro :) [my 2nd post now btw]. I hope it pounds. cause I already have two kicker C12's in a sealed enclosure and it pounds with like 200rms to each sub. broke my third taillight and my antenna fell off and such.

I'm excited to see what a tline will do to my car O_o hehehe

I wouldn't tune it to 26 hz, waay to low, mine is tuned to 27 hz, and is way too low for normal songs.

Maybe try 30hz, i think that wouldn't be too low, nor too high.

Thinking is the root of all problems...

They do sound really clean and louder then every ported box.

If it's tuned that low, you get quite a lot more excursion at 33-37 hz.

But it's just nutz on the lows, and mine peaks at around 35-36 hertz, so it's the loudest at 35-36hertz at the same amount of power.

thats awesome. i tried to listen to your vids to get an idea, but then I realized I left my headphones at college and my laptop speakers wont reproduce the sound I wanna hear anyway lol

Plus, I think this build is gonna be temp until i get around to glassing the trunk ^_^ so if i dont like it, i'll only be dealing till summertime.

maybe I'll end up using it inside after i pull it outta the car or something :)

thanks for taking the time to chat.

Can anyone give me guidance on a T-Line for a dual 2 ohm Kicker CVR 12''?

It will be going in a blazer so space should not be an issue.

I don't need a box design, just how much square port area I need and how ling the port length should be.

BL is 14.05

FS is 26.7

SD is 0.0531

I never would have thought the FS would be that low on this woofer. Should I go for a higher FS tuning like 30 or 33hz?

Thanks a bunch.
