''Bassman'' Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 (edited) The box I have right now is something like 9.6 or something like that and I was thinking it was to small. DC98hoe is right, smaller is better with alot of power, plus you can throw more power on them with a smaller box... 4 cubes per xl 18 is bout right.. i got 4 xl 15's in a wall with 13 net cubes sounds really nice, and i still can throw power on them.

AA98hoe Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 Smaller box more control with a lot of power. Bigger box more efficient with less power. You should be fine matt.
