Would a kicker s15L7 do fine in a sealed box with 2.5 cubic feet?

do a ported box

The spot with least resistance LOL.

I would ground to a rubber dildo if it had less resistance than a run of 4/0 wiring.

how many poeple work there 3 or 4 lol

At crescendo HQ? probably 2-3

At the sweatshop in china? 30,000 children

No. That would just make it a leaky sealed box and have it sound like poo. There's more to it then just cutting a hole in the side. You need to build a new box

If you can fit it go ported.

Kicker recommends 1.5 minimum - 6 maximum cubes sealed

3 minimum - 6 maximum cubes ported

So I guess 2.5 cubes would be OK sealed but you wont get the max output from that woofer.

Depends on your space I guess. What kind of vehicle? Is it going in a trunk? Back of ext cab pickup? SUV cargo area?

This^ as well as what you want out of the woofer

What amp do you have?

Could you provide some measurements of the maximum dimensions you are willing to sacrifice?

Is a ported box just a hole? or is it a chamber of the box?

apply that answer to your box.

Just keep the sealed for a bit,
in the mean time, study box porting, and try your hand at it later (or pay someone else, which isn't recommended)

in a million, trillion, kabillion years,i would never play that song in my ride. I don't care if its clipped or not LOL. I feel like my nads got clipped after playing this for 15 seconds just to see what it was LOL.

No thanks bro. Not into it.
