Hey SMD! I was wondering what u guys think would b best for my system. I have a 96 suburban with 2 SA-12's with a box tuned to 34 hz and I already made a hole for the third one. I currently have it covered. But I was told that it would b better if I just left 2 subs and left it how it now. So I was thinking what u guys think. Should I get another SA-12? A passive radiator? Or leave it be? I've never used a PR before so noooo idea how it works. Just thought I would try something new! Haha

Here's my build if u guys need more info on the box:

I'd go with the sub. First of all, I'm not even sure if a PR will help anything because it is in a ported box, and (going off of logic alone here) might cause you some cancellation issues. Plus, if the box is already built to the specs of having the three woofers in there, why not put the third in? More doof doof is always a good thing.

masterbation is free, and even saves you money.sorry but someone had to say it

sorry, Jimmy...beat you to it (no pun intended)

LOLDON'T get a wife. Best advice I never got, and now it's too late <_<

My build: 12" DCON in a dorm room.

New/current build: 8" woofer, custom amplifier block, fiberglassed speaker pods

Right right....good points! And well idk..my local audio guy said it would SOUND better. But of course the third one would b louder. And I currently don't have money for a third one now.
