Quiet Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 experience > rf's recommendations it will play faster, lower, and louder with that big of a box The only down side is I don't have the room for that big of a box. wenn_du_weinst is right. You should be ok with the power you have, just don't get over zealous with the volume knob. Facing back will give you better low end extension, perfect with the shallow roll off of the large sealed box. Quote 2007 Pacifica Rebuild. Less quiet. Still not loud.

Plus the 4ft box would be a wow factor IMO Quote Click Links To View Build Logs 1994 - Mazda B3000 (Daily/Toy/Show) 2002 - Mazda Protege (Daily) 1995 - Hyundai Accent (R.I.P.) 1984 - Bronco II (Restoration Project) Youtube Channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyaim Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 Ive tried all positions and you feel it more in the cabin if you put it vented firing back vents back, or if your back seats can drop do firing into cabin vents facing cabin and drop the seats...

audio1der Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 Geez, 3ft^3 still seems so big when they reccomend 1.25... I have a P3 12" (dual 2 ohm coils, whatever that makes the model#...) in 1ft^3 sealed with an RMS matching amp and it HAMMERS. I always go with the reccomended size, but that's me. I'm still learning every day from these guys.

I'm still learning every day from these guys. I was a little worried about wasting mdf but I fuger when the time comes to up grade to a bigger better sub I will already have the box. Know one ever stops learning.
